Guest lupin Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Good day folks, Any Air Canada employees in the montreal region should try and make it in today to go see the airplanes on display at the base.(end of cote de vertu) Embraer brough a EMB170,its a pretty cool looking aiplane,almost like a mini 737.They also have the 717(the upgraded DC-9)The mini airbus is there as well (the 318).And last....there are three RJs from bombardier,a cl65-200 a cl65-700 and a cl65-900 Quite a nice line up.

Guest tritanic Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 The first one's engines were too big The second one's fuselage was too small The third one's airframe was too old The fourth one was just right Tritanic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blizzard Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 Is that a vote for the Embraer? I heard some very nice compliments on the Embraer from people who were in YUL to tour. My vote would be for the 717, but we could probably get Brazilian govt financing for the Embraers. Wouldn't the Liberal govt love that. It might even be enough for them to reregulate the industry and cancel the order! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lupin Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 the Embraer is indeed a very nice machine,Quite an improvement from the ERJ145 they have out in the market now.I even hear its one of the chepest ones out there! But who knows hoe a bresilian bird will react in the cold??? Lupin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanishing point Posted September 11, 2003 Share Posted September 11, 2003 When it comes to engines, there is no such thing as "too big". Especially when one fails, I'd like the other one to fly me away from the potential crash site, not lead me to it. Cheers VP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
