Bombardier CRJ200

Field marks

  1. Rear-fuselage engines and a T-tail separate it (and the ERJ145) from any E-Jet, which has underwing engines and a conventional tail
  2. The stubbiest fuselage of any regional jet in this fleet — a short, tightly coupled body with the tail sitting close behind the wing
  3. No winglet of any kind — a plain tip on a rear-engined T-tail regional jet points to this or an ERJ145, never a CRJ700/900/1000
  4. No visible APU exhaust pipe protruding from the tail, unlike the ERJ145

Variant notes

  • Derived from the Challenger 600 business jet — shares its fuselage cross-section and nose shape
  • Delta and American have fully retired it, but roughly 400+ still fly worldwide with SkyWest, Air Wisconsin (American Eagle), and international operators
  • US scope-clause rules that once protected 50-seaters are fading, so surviving airframes skew toward smaller regional and charter operators
