The CRJ is a plump, shapeless, squatty lump. Don't get me started on that awful nose and ridiculous cockpit windows. The engines...who was the genius who designed those ugly things? Good grief, did they run out of cowling material?

The Avro is even fatter than the CRJ. It looks like one of those super-deformed Japanese models of a C-5/C-141/C-17. It's a caricature. Utterly ridiculous.

ERJ all the way, though frankly, I think the Dornier 328 turboprop is better looking than any of the RJs.

I know I'm biased but here goes nothing:

1) CRJ-700 and 900 (Gorgeous lines)

2) EMB-145XR (Winglets really look good on this airplane)

3) EMB-145LR (Looks better on the ramp than 50 seat CRJ's)

4) EMB-140 (OK looking)

5) CRJ-100/200 (If it had longer gear, I'd put it in 2nd place)

6) Bac 146 (It's not THAT ugly)

7) EMB-135 (Too short. Looks like a Business Jet)

8) Do-328 jet (Looks like a turboprop with jets. Plain Jane)
 
So far from insult someone here but does someone think that camaro Nash Bridges uses in his series is ugly?
Come on on the 70's and 80's everybody knows what was a beauty car or beauty bird not a computer autocad draw.
72's are also top of the list with BAC111's.

BYE

I belive the car was a 'Cuda (MOPAR not Chevy). It was recently sold to a private buyer.
 
I believe it was a 1971 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. (It may have been a 1970 model, but I can't recall the headlight configuration.)

The car they used for jumping was a 318 car (W/B issues) with lots of reinforcement of the frame. Unlike "The Dukes of Hazzard" where a jump destroyed a Charger, they rebuilt/repaired the jumping 'Cuda every time it needed it.

'Cudas are cool, but the 1969 Dodge Charger R/T with a 426 Hemi is the king of all cars. Alas, I will just have to be happy with my 318 car...but I can dream. :)

Thanks for pointing out my error
edited it to say Little loud...so is
the old DC-9, the original regional
jet, and far better looking than
anything mentioned yet except the
Convair and Concord...but they
aren't rj's...and the cockpit of the
-9 aint loud, so who cares!
 
CRJ for sure, especially the CRJ700...just something about the look of the wrap-around windshield that does it for me. Of course it's my first jet, so I'm a little biased (in the same way as the King Air C90 is my favorite turboprop because it was my first).
 
ALL rj's are uncomfortable to ride in, ALL rj's are slow(speed bumps are more useful), and any jet you need headsets in might as well be a turbo-prop. As for looks, ALL rj's are as homely as the wives of those that fly them.
