What does MP and EP stand for (as in 145EP, 145MP)?

I think I've already figured out LR.

Not sure about "EP" but "MP" stands for "maritime patrol."

estimated perfomance and marginal performance?

min performance and extra **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED**ed

Heh, Heh. MP stands for "Minimal Performance" and EP stands for "Excessively Putrid". These are aircraft with the smaller fuel tanks of the original E145, with reduced MTOW and MRW to match. In addition the EP lacks TRs (and has the small wheels and brakes of the oriiginal) which guarantees yellow brake temps after nearly every landing; this bastardized gem also features the same MZFW and MLW of the E140LR, which essentially makes it a 40-44 pax airplane (these weights are usually the most limiting on the airplane).

Isn't N977RP one of those Eurotrash planes?

Yup. 977 and 978.
