I think if you had to be in the 50 seat game then this is where you want to be.\
They are also dirt cheap on the used aircraft market right now. They are desperate to unload some of these used 50 seaters.
When was this? I've been at AWAC for 3 years, I've had exactly one time where I've been unable (filed under 3585 with 50 people and bags all the way from PHL to MCI) that I've had to kick people off the plane. The CRJ when used correctly is not a bad plane at all.
