Are the EMB-170,175,190 and 195 a common type rating? If so what designator is used on your certificate? I am compiling a list of all possible type ratings however these aircraft are not on the FAA AC type rating list.
 
Yes it is a common type. It is an ERJ-170;ERJ-190 on my license. If yours shows EMB170 I would suggest heading back down to Canal St. to buy a higher quality fake.

The EMB 170 is the -100, the 175 is -200. I'm not sure if it's the same (but I would guess it is) with the 190.
 
170: 170-100
175: 170-200
190: 190-100
195: 190-200

So, for licensing purposes it is listed as E170/E190. When I got that one added to my license, I had to inform the FSDO guy that the type included the 190... he was just going to put E170 on there.

Now for the $64,000 question... If they are all one type, then how can cost savings being realized if both mainline and regionals are operating the same type for the same carrier (think Republic and US Airways)? how long will such a set up last?
 
My license says ERJ-170, ERJ-190. Don't know if they differentiate on the ATP the 179/195.

That is the million dollar question.

it never should have started, Republic should not have taken mainline ac and Mainline should not have let them. At the very least Republic should be flying those on an elevated pay scale and contract, you guys make me sick
 
RAH has options for something like 8 E190s ... soooo....

There is nothing in RJET's most recent quarterly or annual reports to back that statement up.

There is, however, the following nugget:

RJET 10-K Annual Report 3/14/07 said:
As of December 31, 2006, our operational fleet consisted of 171 aircraft, including 76 ERJ-170, 70-seat and larger regional jets and 95 ERJ-145 family, 37- 50 seat regional jets. Currently, we have agreed to place into service an additional 30 ERJ-175 regional jets for US Airways through 2008. These 30 aircraft are covered by firm orders that we have with Embraer. We have also agreed to place forty-four 50-seat regional jets into service for Continental between January and July 2007. We will transition 20 ERJ-145 aircraft from our US Airways operations and we plan to lease 24 CRJ-200 regional jets to fulfill the commitment. As of December 31, 2006, four leases for such CRJ-200 aircraft had been obtained and began service in January 2007. We have commitments to lease the remaining 20 CRJ-200 aircraft. In addition, we have entered into an agreement with Frontier to operate 17 ERJ-170 regional jets. Four of the 17 aircraft are currently in our fleet but are not allocated to a code-share partner and the remaining 13 aircraft will be funded by delivery positions available with Embraer in 2007 and 2008. The Company has options for 79 ERJ-170 aircraft, which may be converted to options for ERJ-175, ERJ-190 or ERJ-195 aircraft, which range in size from 78 seats to 110 seats.

Well, in keeping with your line of thought, mainline pilots should have never agreed to the "B-scale" pay and benefits associated with Mid Atlantic, they should have held their scope restrictions to prevent such large aricraft from going to a regional, and they should have insisted on a management team that could actually avoid bankruptcy. But since YOU never manned up, those planes were sold for money and operated in accordance with mainline scope restrictions, with HIGHER CAPTAIN PAY and PAY POTENTIAL than mainline. Or were you just sitting in the left seat of your Dash 8, pretending like you were a mainline pilot who had a say in this?

That said, I personally do not fault the mainline pilot group, or the Republic pilot group. Management on both sides did what they wanted. At least Republic offered the J4J guys a better deal than Mesa or PSA.. and are far happier at RAH than any of the other J4J carriers. Sure, I would rather be sitting in the same seat with a mainline seniority number, but that is not how history happened. But if you want to go on and be bitter about it, suit yourself. I will spend my time making things better.

Oh yeah, and YOU make me sick. Grow up.

Yes, and they have common pay with the E-120. ;)
