That's why we fly the CRJ! Much better than a Jungle Jet. There is plenty of space for a laptop in the overhead bin. But people try to bring their whole dang wardrobe onboard and that just ain't gonna happen. So, we put it in the cargo hold and return it to them at the gate when we arrive. No big deal.

QuoteQuote from an Eagle pilot on the 145: "If you wanna get to where you wanna go don't follow the flight director." Real pilots don't need the flight director anyways.. I've seen way too many pilots that are dependent on the flight director. They do what it says, regardless of what it's telling you to do. Too many times I've seen guys turn the wrong way because "the flight director said to"...or in severe crosswinds(like we had going into ORD last week - 60 knot crosswind at 5k, 40 at 3k, 30 at 1k) the thing doesn't have a clue, but too many guys just fly the S-turns it commands anyways.
