Well Gents, it appears the consensus is that it is a fine aircraft, so on all of the the positive response from this topic. I will purchase it. I thank you all for your honesty and comments - all have been taken on board.

Keep the blue up.

yes, took this post as a reminder to take the RJ out of the hangar and just did some zipping EDDM - LOWS - LIRF - LOWI and all fine. Only wish it had "native" simbrief import also into the FMC (can do in the EFB but not any further unless I miss something; yes I know the Simbrief Downloader but don't like it)

    As @xender says, what don't you like about the 146?  The RJ has more automation and I would recommend it to anyone, as I would the 146.

I just can’t get over the fact they (146&RJ) fly nose up on approach, they shouldn’t.

It puzzles me why many of you are supposedly not experiencing the "pitch oscillation" problem during descent and final approach in the RJ Professional. JustFlight have confirmed that it is an issue, but they have not yet released a fix. Until that day, it remains in my MSFS 2020 hangar.

It puzzles us as you are having this issue. Have not experienced the Bae 146 or Avro in 2020 or 2024 having that issue. Maybe I experienced the bug once? Not sure. The only oscillating issue I had was from a different plane/developer. This sounds like a conflict, a setting or something else than merely the plane. What have you tried to alleviate this issue?

They mostly certainly don't for me when I fly/land them. Do you use the speed breaks on approach? That is normally what is done. They start using these at 500ft agl from landing. Also these are used to slow the plane down regardless on their approach. Ie: the planes nose should not be up upon landing.

The JustFlight team have confirmed that it is an issue (others have also reported it), so it is not a settings or hardware conflict issue specific to my PC. I am waiting to see if they provide a fix, but presumably it must be proving a difficult task to identify the source of the problem.

Yes, I use the speed brake and tried all combinations of flaps and speeds, the ADI still shows slight nose up on approach.

This aircraft has failures caused by piloting and maintenance module?

Can't nail it down exactly, just find it doesn't do anything for me, lacking automation with throttles and VNAV might contribute to it but just doesn't appeal to me.

Interesting - those are among the exact reasons I really love it.

It also has loads of character - high wing, 4 engine, distinctive sounds.

Heck, it even has "rough field" and cargo capabilities. 😁

Yes, it is really great!

It probably won't happen. Martyn (Was it him?) basically said when they added it to the B146 they saw very very little uptake on using those features so didn't think it was worthwhile to do the same for the F28. I imagine the same thinking will be applied to the RJ. I guess if there's enough demand they'll do it as their systems are more than capable just a matter of implementing the capability to the user.

Probablemente no suceda. Martyn (¿Era él?) básicamente dijo que cuando lo añadieron al B146, vieron muy poca aceptación de esas funciones, así que no creyeron que valiera la pena hacer lo mismo con el F28. Imagino que aplicarán el mismo razonamiento al RJ. Supongo que si hay suficiente demanda, lo harán, ya que sus sistemas son más que capaces; solo es cuestión de implementar la función para el usuario.

It is a pity to develop systems so much and then not use them anymore.

I mean the systems are still to a very high fidelity, one could even say you can “study” them if you can find the documentation to test. You just can’t trigger a failure. Just flight has the statistics to show that’s good enough for majority of their buyers so why put the dev work into something almost no one uses. 

I don't think I've ever had failures enabled in any sim I've owned.

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

Quiero decir que los sistemas aún tienen una fidelidad muy alta; incluso se podría decir que se pueden "estudiar" si se encuentra la documentación para probarlos. Simplemente no se puede provocar un fallo. Just Flight tiene las estadísticas que demuestran que es suficientemente bueno para la mayoría de sus compradores, así que ¿por qué invertir tanto tiempo en desarrollo en algo que casi nadie usa? 

It is clear that everyone is looking for something different in a simulator. For me, it makes no sense to simulate certain systems in depth if, in the end, no matter what I do, the aircraft is going to fly the same way; it's a waste of time and makes the product more expensive for no purpose.

I am with Paul on this one. I want plenty of systems depth, but I have never been interested in simulation failures.
