E-Jets

[Guest TShoemaker]

Just wanted to get some fellow simmers impressions on the Embraer E-Jets (170 and 190). Until yesterday, I had a vague familiarity with them, but I absolutely love both airframes after spending the better part of a day flying them. I would recommend to anyone to take one for a spin at least once. Hopefully, someone can produce a terrific freeware/payware add-on with all the functions (APU, MCU, etc). If one is produced, I know I'll be one of the first in line to get one.Very best regards,Trent Shoemaker

Did you fly in a real E170/190? If so, what airline and between what cities? Sorry to say they aren't routed into KPHX currently so I don't have much chance of flying on one in the near future. But I sure wish they would have been around in the days when I logged one or two business flights a week. The 2x2 seating looks very nice for business travelers. Now that I have my wife and daughter and mostly travel for pleasure, I tend to prefer the bigger jets just so we can all sit together. As a sidenote, the FDE for Dreamwings 170 was done by meself.. :)-John

Two words: Love 'em!!!! :-hahI'm really happy that my country's flagship carrier is gonna get 15 EMB-170's, with the first two of the lil' beauties scheduled for delivery this month. :DBTW, John: Your FDE for the Dreamwings EMB-170 is awesome, and generally speaking it's one of my favorite jets in FS2004!! :-hah :9Cheers,

jetblue will get I think something like 20 or 30 EMB 190s by the end of next year. So chances are you might get one of them into phoenix
