You'll need to pass the CRJ-200 F/O test to obtain this rating.

Luke,

I flew another "Assigned Flight," completed both legs, filed the PIREPs, and both PIREPs were approved; I also did not "release" them; however, the program has not automatically processed the flights. Also, I noticed that when I clicked on the "assigned" flights from the pull-down menu, the 2 flights are listed for me, but the date assigned square is blank, unlike the othere I see on the page. Please advise.

If you are already rated to fly the CRJ200, would that qualify you for a rating in the ERJ170?

There is no CRJ FO test; all DVA pilots are hired in with all Stage 1 ratings. Right now we're debating the placement of the ERJ 170 as a Stage 1 or Stage 2 rating. We will post an announcement once a decision is reached.

How about creating an ERJ Program since it has several types of aircraft now...ERJ-130-5 / 140-145 / 170-190.
I am hearing that Delta is looking realll hard at the ERJ-190 now...that would replace a lot of the CRJ-700 markets as well as some 737-200 markets.
So in the next year or so,sont be surprised to see Delta's regional carriers start operating the ERJ-190.

I like that idea Joe. With Freedom (Mesa), Chautauqua and Shuttle America all operating a combined fleet of over 100 Embraers (ERJ-135s, -145s, and -170s) for Delta Connection I think it is time for an Embraer program.
