Most flight simulator fans prefer flights that do not exceed two hours, and for a good reason. The parts of simulated flights considered “fun” are the departure and arrival. That’s why commuters are so popular with flight simulator fans.
The Bombardier CRJ series are some of the most often used regional airliners today – every 10 seconds, one of them takes off. You will find them at most airports worldwide. Although not very popular with passengers as those seats are indeed very small and you cannot even stand upright if you are tall, airline companies prefer them because they are efficient and reliable. They are still in production, and although the newer models have better seats, larger overhead bins and better sound proofing they will never be comfortable.
Pilots like to fly them because they are powerful, agile, and a joy to fly manually. It is often described as ‘sporty’. They also demand more flying skill than a modern Airbus or Boeing because the flight management systems are limited, for example: no auto throttle and only advisory vertical navigation.
The CRJ professional is a full rebuild of the CRJ 700/900 that adds new models, new modeling, updated systems, optional vertical navigation, all new graphics using PBR and a Electronic Flight Bag with support for charts, checklists and calculations.

Can't really find anything wrong with this airplane. EFB is very nicely done and super useful in getting the flight organized, has all the functions and data you need. Flight model feels really good. Have had a few stall events upon approach by letting the speed bleed too far so be careful and don't go below Vref. Model is perfect, cockpit is perfect...if you're a fan of regional flights then what are you waiting for...I highly recommend this plane by Aerosoft. 5 stars.
