- HISTORY ASPECTS:
- Manufactured by GeminiJets as a limited edition, highly collectible model, this Mesa Airlines Bombardier CRJ900 - Registration N942LR - has been meticulously recreated from Bombardier's blueprints and features realistic landing gear and detailed graphics, assuring the utmost accuracy and superior quality.
- As the popularity of the 50 seat CRJ-100/200 grew, many of the world's airlines turned to Bombardier for a larger aircraft that could carry a bigger payload. With the input that they received from the airlines, Bombardier responded to their requested requirements with the introduction of three new variants of the CRJ-100/200 - identified as the CRJ-700, CRJ-705 and the CRJ-900. All these new aircraft feature a stretched fuselage, a new, larger cabin, an all-new wing, and more powerful engines.
- The Bombardier CRJ-700 has been stretched 19 feet longer than the earlier CRJ-100/200, enabling the new aircraft to carry up to 78 passengers. With a range of up to 2,300 miles, Bombardier CRJ-700 is the longest-range aircraft in the Bombardier regional aircraft series.
- The largest of the three variants, the Bombardier CRJ-900, with a stretch of 31 feet longer than the original CRJ-100/200, can accommodate up to 90 passengers and a range of up to 2,100 miles.
- Rounding out the series is the Bombardier CRU-705. Although essentially a Bombardier CRJ-900 in size and appearance, the Bombardier CRU-705 is equipped with a "permanent" Business Class configuration of 75 seats, which permits the aircraft to operate within airlines' legal pilot "scope clauses" within the aviation industry - a contract between a major airline and its pilots' trade union, which limits the size and number of aircraft that may be flown by the major airline's regional airline affiliate.
- The final iteration of the CRJ series is the model CRJ-550, which is a model CRJ-700 that has been fitted with a three-class cabin, limiting seating to 50 passengers.
