Canadair Regional Jet inside room
How bad is the Canadair Regional Jet with respect to inside room,
i.e. legroom and headroom? Is it acceptable like the Dash-8 or suitable only for midgets like the Saab 2000? If it matters, I am interested in the Austrian Airlines (Tyrolean Airways) version. Pete

You can compare the two on their web site: http://www.aua.com/at/eng/Austrian/Fleet/canadair+jet/ http://www.aua.com/at/eng/Austrian/F...bardier+Q+400/

I fly them whenever I can.

Otherwise they are fine (for a commuter), but I'd avoid them for flights of more than an hour or so.

together. You can compare the two on their web site: The bombardier web site had a very good fuselage cross section for the 2 planes. The Dash-8 has higher ceiling, and normal height windows (because the floor is lower). However, there is less leg room for window seats due to the wall being at more of an angle on the Dash-8 than for the CRJ. Maximum width is the same, but width at floor level is bigger on CRJ than DASH-8.

I fly on them for regional flights up to two hours and they are okay. Exit
rows are the best seats on the plane. One good thing about these planes is that they are fast. I find that they are more comfortable an definitely less noisy compared to Dash-8s Clint Free Spirit Gallery http://www.FreeSpiritGallery.ca Exquisite Inuit (Eskimo) & Native Art "Pete" wrote in message link.net...
