The knobs on the side panels that control your displays are all the same shape and size so you have to visually look instead of being able to feel the knob.
All airplanes seats suck.
Green/yellow colors are too close.
CRJ 700 cooling fan are REALLLY FRIGGIN LOUD
Cup holders aren't that usefull.
Sun shades don't work.
Parking brake can be difficult to engage on some airplanes. (I write it up).
I could go on but i hate thinking of work.....

Nobody is mentioning the Tx/Ic switch on the audio control panel. i think it should be mounted on the side panel so you can answer the radio and turn the Alt Selector at the same time.
Thats how it is on the CL-604

On the other hand one thing I really like about the CRJ is where they put the chart holder, up on the window sill, and best of all put a flexible light that shines on it. As much as I loved flying the DH-8 that's one thing I miss about the CRJ.

Thanks everyone for your posts. This is great information that I will be able to show to the students. And everyone already knows the payscale is broken. Maybe passengers will start tipping pilots for good landings

I would completely redesign the overhead panel and incorporate the lower pedestal onto the overhead, like most transport cat. A/C, and install side windows that can slide back and get rid of that ridiculous 'plug' of an emergency exit on top that is nothing more than a death trap when you actually need it compared to the size of some of our CA and crew....Other than that put a true FADEC and the 700 engines on the 200 and install a RECIRC fan and i would fly this plane forever, I just hope that I don't have to !

They should have made the sun visor rail much stronger. Every time you try to hang your self from it it falls right in your lap so you end up having to finish your six leg day. What a let down.
