Editorial Overview & Systems Analysis

  • North American Scope-Clause Feeder Operations: Recreating high-density regional hub-and-spoke routes connecting major carrier hubs to secondary and regional commercial airports (e.g., Chicago O'Hare to Traverse City, Denver to Aspen, or Atlanta to Savannah).

  • Hot-and-High & Mountain Regional Airport Access: Taking advantage of the CRJ-700’s superior power-to-weight ratio and leading-edge slats to operate into restricted high-altitude or short-runway mountain destinations like Aspen Pitkin County (KASE), Jackson Hole (KJAC), or Eagle County (KEGE).

  • European Regional Feeder Schedules: Flying regional commuter rotations for operators like Lufthansa CityLine across Western and Central Europe.

  • Hands-On Throttle & Energy Management Practice: Mastering regional airliner flying without autothrottles, requiring continuous manual power adjustments across climb, level-off, step climbs, descent, and visual approaches.

Key Highlights

  • Shorter fuselage provides significantly more forgiving takeoff rotation and landing flare pitch margins compared to the stretched CRJ-900 and CRJ-1000.
  • Twin General Electric CF34-8C1 engines modeled with authentic FADEC detents (CLIMB, TOGA, MAX POWER) and brisk spool dynamics.
  • Accurate Rockwell Collins Pro Line 4 cockpit and flight director logic, including authentic SPEED mode pitch dynamics and selectable flight director command bar styles.
  • Dual window-mounted EFB tablets featuring live weight/balance staging, SimBrief flight plan import, door management, and takeoff/landing speed calculators.
  • Multi-layered FMOD sound environment capturing authentic CFM/GE-family spool whine, hydraulic systems, cooling fans, and cabin sound muffling when closing the cockpit door.
  • Fully modeled passenger cabin with folding tray tables, opening overhead stowage bins, working window blinds, and animated exterior boarding stairs.

Quirks & Limitations

  • FMS architecture operates as an adapted Collins CDU interface layered on top of X-Plane’s native navigation engine rather than a completely bespoke custom navdata engine.
  • True to the real Bombardier CRJ family, the aircraft has no autothrottle; pilots must manually set and adjust thrust throughout every phase of flight.
  • Lacks native support for the third-party AviTab tablet plugin, relying exclusively on the developer's bespoke in-cockpit EFB.
  • Cockpit and overhead circuit breakers are rendered as animated 3D meshes but function procedurally without component-level electrical fault logic.
