Why did Canadair originally develop the 50 seat CRJ?
Other than the smurf jet, aka BAe146, was another RJ developed before the CRJ?
Was the RJ developed in response to industry requests, or was it a speculative development?
Was the RJ developed to counter an "anti-propellor" move amongst the passengers? or
Was the RJ developed to move 50 pax, quickly over a long distance? (relative to prop airliners)
When introduced, was the RJ advertised as a hub-buster(long-range, low yield routes), or as solely a replacement for propellor aircraft on short routes?
Why was the Rj sold to commuter/regional airlines instead of mainline airlines? or,
Why did the mainlines decide not to operate the RJ?
Any other questions, please ask them.
If you know the definitive answer to any question, please tell us. If all you have is current anti/pro RJ rhetoric, please save it for the other ongoing RJ strings.
