Im a GA flyer, and dont normally fly airliners, but Ive been playing around with and trying to learn the CRJ-200 in detail. After taking a short flight and poking around a lot in the cockpit, I noticed this little propeller thing sticking out of the front. What is this for? I couldnt find anything about in in the manual. (ive circled it in red). Rob

I recently made the switch to X-Plane from Fly! 2K and am considering purchasing the CRJ 200 but i want to learn more about it before i make this pretty large investment. I am looking for some brutally honest feedback. I have not found a lot of unbiased reviews over at x-plane.org because of understandable commercial interests. I am particularly interested in real pilot involvement in the development of the flight model and flight dynamics. Here are some questions:Was there a real pilot involved in the development and for how long?Does the flight model feel solid and stable? Most X-Plane aircraft seem to have overly efficient control surfaces, which translates to over responsiveness and instability, especially in pitch?Are the avionics and cockpit exactly like the real thing, down to every small detail? Think PMDG. Does hand flying the plane provide a sense of inertia and stability? Think Rob Young flight models. Does the plane make the usual unrealistic tire squaling sounds while taxiing?I like to hand fly and my favourite simulation aircraft are still Rob Young's v88 Kingair and Navajo for Fly! 2K, but this brilliant sim is getting outdated and i decided to switch to something more modern. There are many things i like about X-Plane and i really hope to purchase an impressive pay ware aircraft soon. Thanks for your help. Feel free to compare to other products like PMDG for FSX. I would really like to know how the CRJ compares in all aspects.

I've owned Xplane for awhile now and never gave it more than a passing install and then delete, but after seeing the above mentioned bird I'm seriously thinking about buying my first Xplane payware addon. Anybody here have it? Impressions?
