It is an Embraer 190 and is doing London City certification for a week or so. All sorts of stuff i believe, parking trails, noise abatement trails on SIDs and obviously the steep approach stuff.
It appears to be capable of slow Vapp speeds with a very high nose attitude.
Anyone out there flying the E190 or E195 know how it goes on three degrees? Good performance? Fast on the transition as well as the cruise? Bird impact speed (if it has one), ie can it go below FL100 at "high speed"? Easy to slow down!? Climb with good rates?
Maybe in a years time they will be a more common sight at LCY!
