As a 5year RHS "veteran" of the 145 at Man I can promise you that you cannot work harder than the 750hrs / year that is currently the norm on the embraer fleet, I can't vouch for the RJ's but they seem to do a considerable amount of touring. Our scheduling agreement won't allow more than 750 even though CAA says you can do more. Congratulations to all of you for getting the nod, you'll hear a lot of bitching around the crewroom but most of us are loyal to the cause and through the doom and gloom of the past and current climate see a bright future for CX
