The 145LR. It's as close as you can get to flying a tprop plus it has enough power at higher altitudes. Very maneuverable and easy on speed. The cockpit is nice and spacious enough but the seats can get uncomfortable for those 1.5+ hour flights.

I've flown the EMB120, Saab340, and CRJ2/7/9. I'd vote for the Bro if it didn't require you to retrim the rudder constantly, you could set a specfic vertical speed climb/descent, and the ailerons/elevator were hydraulically assisted. So I'll go with the CRJ series.

The 1900D is ugly as **** but is easy and fun to fly, It's just a big king air.
The CRJ 700 is the best all around regional aircraft. Fast, with great climb performance.
EMB-145 looks cool and sleek and is an easy first jet, but it is loud and slow compared to the CRJ. The ERJ is better for the pax though due to the single A seat config. The CRJs are all uncomfortable for pax, except for First class passengers.
