"7" to "9" differences

[atlcrjdriver]

I can't believe this thread is called "7" to "9."

CR7 to CR9

feel better?

Why flare, the 700 lands just fine flat...

Don't want to be flat in the 900, expect firm landings until you get the feel for it. Otherwise a nice airplane to fly.

Seriously, we need to put a stop to calling the CRJ-900 the "9" before it spreads any further.

Hey, it doesn't bother me, it just makes whoever uses the term sound like a poser. To each is own.

How dare a mere regional pilot pose as a "real" airline pilot?!?!

I see no difference between a regional guy saying 9 for short instead of CRJ900, and a major guy saying 9 for short instead of DC-9, as long as the context makes the meaning clear. Only members with small members feel threatened by stupid phrases.

No kidding! My favorite is when they do that "heavy turn" to line up perpendicular to the HOLD SHORT line for the runway. Some pilots just have more seniority than brains!

This is a source of amusement to me and I hope it continues.

Get a life, does this really disturb you? Some may choose to do this "heavy turn" in which you speak of to take a look at some significant weather or terrain on the radar in perhaps their direction of flight.
Ever think of that?................Tool
