In the CRJ you have to manually adjust the angle of descent based on ground speed in an attempt to get close to a flight-idle descent. Otherwise you're constantly descending with power. Also, it doesn't build in your speed reductions for you.
Thirded!

Don't forget the stupid buttons on the MCDU in the CRJ. Get 3-4 numbers or letters for the price of one push many times!

On both aircraft it only takes one loose screw aft of the control yoke attach bolt to totally discombobulate any or all aircraft systems.

(And to think I have only flown one of the two chosen aircraft) !!!

Is Schumacher still teaching that class? I know when I went through in 04, I got the Airbus 320 or 330, can't remember. Everyone else showed slides of schematics and tried to fumble through the systems boring everyone. I went with the Pilot-centric approach and threw up a picture of the overhead panel and highlighted each system on different slides and walked through the systems as a pilot would see it. It kept the class engaged, and Schumacher ate it up. To the point he pulled me aside when he saw me at the airport and told me how much he enjoyed it, but apologized because he had to give me a lower grade due to my partner (who had the history portion) stinking it up. FWIW

haha Yep Schumacher's still teaching it. That's what I was planning to do. The last few groups were unbelievably boring. The group today spent almost their entire presentation talking about the different "laws" on the A320 such as normal, alternate, etc. Even Pete was nodding off! So anything to make it interesting I'll use.

Never flew the CRJ or 767... But more than a few in between.

If it is presentation on correlating CRJ to 767's, both are regulated under part 25. This will allow for many common designs. Whether a CRJ/ERJ/MD88/747.

Such as single pack operation limits, passenger O2, anti-ice (maybe), etc.... Point is, since they are all certified under part 25 (and others), certian system will work the same regardless. So once you figure out your CRJ, some of the same limitations/operating philosophy's with the 767 would be the same or closely similar.

Make sure you point out to the class where the "Fly" button is... but do NOT talk about the Chemtrail dispersal systems or show them where those switches are.

Does the CRJ have CWS(Command Wheel Steering)? It's almost the grandfather to have the 777 flies - yoke controls A/P roll and pitch function, set an attitude and it just stays there.

I've flown both and the MOST important distinction is that one generally PAYS a whole lot more than the other!! 😜

Sorry... Couldn't resist
