I have however had an engine failure in cruise in the CRJ. Happened in December because of no oil pressure. I stand by my previous post where I said that an engine failure in this airplane is a non event. We continued to our destination, as we had just started a descent and the weather was better there than anywhere else. Plane flew great, and the captain and I both commented that that was much easier than the simulator plays it out to be.

As to your second question. Yes, I have in fact flown an "underslung jet." before coming to Pinnacle, I flew the Dornier jet. Never had an engine fail in that plane, but even if the sim greatly exaggerated it, the experience would have sucked. Can't comment on other planes.
