September 15, 200223 yr I wish you luck with the future. It's a shame they are phasing out the CRJ, the Lauda scheme fit the aircraft very well I thought. Any time I hear of someone phasing out our aircraft from their fleets it makes me feel funny too, I guess that comes from working at BAe on the 146 and seeing what happened to that program. Still, Bombardier are the leading RJ supplier, so I guess I can breathe a little easier. I personally am looking forward to seeing our newest CRJ, the 900, in service VERY soon. Here is a picture I took of our prototype 900 a couple of months ago: http://www.airliners.net/open.file/241985/L/I just need to get some pictures of my 200 now. I already have my Dash 8 covered (not very well) here http://www.airliners.net/open.file/240844/L/Well, good luck!Nick
September 15, 200223 yr WarrenI know I am not the only one to say it but I want to emphasise the point: your reply, out of thousands I have read in past weeks, is exactly what this forum should be about and exactly how a mature response - whether from an 8 or 80 year-old - should be phrased.

September 15, 200223 yr Great news. I am by no means a real pilot but it seemed like it had tremendous power on take off and it was a bear to get it slowed down to final approach speed. With Bernt giving input and Warren being very receptive, it seems like we will be getting a revised FDE. Thanks to both Warren and Bernt. Eric
September 15, 200223 yr Now you mention the 'bombardment' i fully understand, thanx for your reply now :-)Bernt Stolle Capt CRJ
September 15, 200223 yr That's right.I flew the -7 and -8 for Tyrolean about 13 years ago.(Never ever again!!!!!!!)If you are at schiphol this monday between 1530-1700 LOC and see a Lauda Air CRJ, that's me!Bernt Stolle Capt CRJ
September 15, 200223 yr Bombardment for a Bombardier (duh) :-)Kitty MercuryCathay Pacific Virtual Pilot (CX252)
September 15, 200223 yr I'll be at work then. If you get a 27 arrival wave when you fly over Amsterdam Buitenveldert, my office is directly underneath the glideslope.
September 15, 200223 yr I only have one problem with the CRJ, its too sensitive to pitch and trim and is VERY unstable during cruise. :(http://img1.ranchoweb.com/images/svedude/jp_sig2.jpg
September 15, 200223 yr Bernt,Had to go in today for a short time. Snuck under our 700 and according to the label on the "Coke Can", it is a hydraulic damper. I figured it was something to do with the hydraulics. Anyway, the funny thing is this part doesn't show up in the landing gear section of the AMM, or at least not in the section I looked at!Anyway, here's looking forward to a revised CRJ FDE!Best Regards,Nick
September 16, 200223 yr A thread which potentially could have turned in to toys being thrown out of the pram, being handled in a timely and constructive manner. I look forword to an amended CRJ with genuine imput from a CRJ commander.Congratulations.George
September 16, 200223 yr we are working in our anger management classes lolnaw really, we weant it to be great, and we dont really have a lot of help FDE wise on the CRJhttp://www.avsim.com/posky/images/banners/gary_ban.gif Gary Hayes My Youtube No i'm not a "real" pilot, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
September 16, 200223 yr Carl, what I did (for my personal use only) is use the Dreamfleet 737 panel. I copied the entire DF panel folder into the CRJ panel folder. I then used MS's default paint program and (making backups first) edited the wing views of the DF 737. I totally erased the wings from the two bitmaps and then filled them in black to match the rest of the bitmap. I then put them back into the panel folder. Now when I click on the wing views icon button in the DF panel, I get the CRJ wing views. They are very nice. And unlike the DF 737, you can actually see the flaps and spoilers moving from the wing view. Of course you also see the navigation lights as well. I know people are gonna say why are you using a 737 panel, but I like and it works for me. Also I now get to have a FMC as well. Eric
September 16, 200223 yr I love the visual model, POSky, it is top notch as usual. Once those FDE's are fixed up it will be first class :7And, how about making the -700 and -900? When will they be done?http://www.monarch.net/users/Icey/gesig3.jpghttp://www.libertys.com/dra/flag_is.gif http://www.canadahomesite.com/images/canaga-flag.gif
