The RJ200-200

This is the second, stretched model in my fictional RJ200 series. Being in the works for more than a year, this regional airliner is finally ready, with its smaller version, the -100, participating in the DPS Wright Int'l Airshow. It seats 4 abreast, for a total capacity of 60 in a one-class configuration or up to 58 in a two-class configuration to compete with several regional jets and turboprops, including the CRJ-700 and the DHC-8 300. The twin high-bypass turbofans are extremely efficient which allows for extended periods in flight.

Features:

• Narrow fuselage – less drag, higher speed as a result
• (relatively) Long range
• Low ground clearance when gear suspension is collapsed – easier loading/unloading passengers & cargo
• Realistic lights
• Winglets that further boost efficiency. Canted winglets are not the most efficient, but they get the job done.
• Canards for increased lift and low-speed efficiency
• Large windows (37.5cm height, 25cm width)
• No reverse thrust/spoilers, reducing manufacture and maintenance cost
• Can simulate engine fire/fail
• Fuel dumping to reduce weight to MLW
• Parachute system to allow the plane to float down with loss of control/unrecoverable stall
• Impressive turn radius on the ground
• Multiple camera views, including from passenger windows
• Low part count with decent detail (under 170)

Increase all speeds except cruise by 2-10kt because of the heavier weight
