Cool

If WAIF-er knew anything about the Embraer, he'd know that it is probably a more complicated aircraft to operate than a 'Bus. None of these fancy computer fly-by-wire systems on the 145, and it's got an avionics sweet the equal, if not better than, the 320 family. It also has a tendancy to not like xwinds, as it is light relative to bigger jets, which are more able to fly stable approachs in high winds. Get your facts straight, I know, I fly the 145!!
