I have no idea, but just by reading the CVR I assume they are gone, especially after the Colgan incident. Not mentioning the sterile cockpit, then failing to follow and adhere to the checklist (wrong flap setting). Then instead of aborting trying to set the flaps to the proper setting while rolling down the runway at take off thrust. Then after that (never flew a CRJ or even a jet) but aborting after V1 for a config warning, I would assume was against procedure as well.

Reading that transcript is sobering, as it was just another flight, and just another convo like any of us have had prior to departure, and then in just 2 seconds it all went wrong. Just kind of a wake up call of how much can go wrong, in such a small amount of time, and the consequences of it.
