The bombardier crj 200 is model cl600-2b19. Why do some operators call it the type rating cl-65?

Do your OP Specs say cl-65 or cl600-2b19?

All Ops Specs should say CL-65 on it cuz thats what the FAA calls it. If your asking why its called that its because the original manufacturer "Canadair" designated "CL" for all of their products.

The "65" is the amount of souls that Canadair says it can legally hold. 50 passengers, 3 crew members and 12 lap children (12 cuz the right side of the A/C has the third o2 mask in every row...and their are only 12 rows on that side.)

Cuz the Canadians told you so!

Actually, I think CL65 is the ICAO designator for CRJ's in general, while CL67 and CL69 can be used for the 700 and 900 respectively.

No a old flying buddy flies for an outfit that operates 200 & 700s.
He said their OP specs have -2b19 and 2c10 or something like that, adding operators that have briefing cards cl-65 are old school.

Shouldn't some -2b19s be called a cl-67s because your math plus the flight deck and optional cabin jumpseat???

I'd guess the type is CL-65 while the make and model may be more specific. I have an ERJ-170/190 SIC type(practically worthless, but serves the example). We fly the E170 and E175, but the op specs refere to the airplanes as E170-100SU and E170-200LR. When it a type covers multiple make and models, like the CRJ-200/700/900 and ERJ-170/190, they generalize the type name for your certifiates.

The C is "Canadair" and the L is "Lear". The supercritical wing on the CRJ was designed by Lear, thus the L in the symbology.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Lear
Not super official but the quickest reference I could find. Look under "innovations"
