That's laughable. There will be thousands of wannabes lined up to get a chance to fly the mainline RJ. Embraer would be wise to call the new jet the MRJ, for Mainline Regional Jet. That way the airlines can know that it is a mainline capable jet but one that can be flown at current RJ pay rates.

MRJ is/will already being used for the Jap Mitsubishi RJ.

and btw Boeing has a large hand in the Commi RJ

which (keeping with the way russians copy, i mean design stuff) looks alot like the defunct 728jet that never was:

what a tangled web they weave......

They dont have to even call it a regional jet. If you offer 50 grand to fly those things you would have pilots jumping there like skybus!
