From this evening's NTSB briefing, revised numbers for the takeoff data:

Vr - 138 knots
Distance to begin nosewheel rotation - 3744 feet

Ms. Hersman said the earlier numbers were for a more powerful engine version. Is the aircraft indeed a CRJ-100, not a CRJ-200? I've seen references to both in the media coverage.
