The Heads Up Guidance System is pretty awesome too.
I don't think CommutAir is in anyones way. We go as fast as anyone else to short final. A lot of times faster. They almost always tell me not to pass the 737 landing on the parallel, lol. We get off the runway very quickly too, so I think that helps out. 11/29 Performance is also handy. |

Incorrect. Pinnacle's 50 seat contract is up in 2017, Comair will be down to 16 50 seaters in less then 2 years & ASA is done by 2020.

Unless we're speed restricted we go 320 down to 10 and 250 to the marker. If you guys are going that fast, that's pretty impressive for a 200.

The Q200 can do about 230 (240 in a descent (clacker at about 242)) when being vectored, but in EWR, you'll be assigned 210 or 180 or something like that way out anyway so it is never a problem. Most of the time, we're being told to slow down, not speed up. Our ref speeds are roughly 90-112kts, but it'll do 140ish all the way down if we need it to, no problem. |

How often can you do 250 to the marker at EWR?

250 to the marker in a CRJ?? I don't ever remember going that fast at the marker and slowing down in time when I was flying them. Then again, maybe I suck. :p

From what I've heard CRJs take a bit to slow down, I dunno I don't fly them. As far as the Embraers go we have a profile for a high speed ILS, which is 250 to the marker. Stabilized by 800 feet I believe. Point taken though, they always slow us up in EWR.

I was referring to ASA, so 9 years not 10 my bad. I hope im at least your FO by then anyway. After flying an RJ for 6 years, a guy can dream can't he? :)
Plus, even though the ASA contract lasts that long the number of 50 seaters decreases dramatically over the last several years. I believe in the final year there are only 6 CRJ200's contracted for flying. |
