The numbered events are those involving at least one passenger death where the aircraft flight had a direct or indirect role, and where at least one of the dead passengers was not a stowaway, hijacker, or saboteur.No matter what plane or configuration youre faced with, however, youll never be able to. The following are significant events involving the aircraft model. Bombardier CRJ plane crashes.

The first of three development machines for the initial CRJ100 performed its first flight on , though the first prototype was lost in a spin mishap on Jnear Wichita, Kansas. The Canadair name was retained despite the fact that Bombardier had bought out the company. In 1987, studies began for a much more ambitious stretched configuration, leading to the formal launch of the Canadair Regional Jet program in the spring of 1989. That lengthening did not occur, the effort being canceled in 1981, but the idea did not disappear.

Similarly, Comair's fleet of 40-seat CRJ200s were sold at a discounted price to discourage Comair from purchasing the less expensive and smaller Embraer 135. These modifications were designed to allow operations under their major airline contract scope clause which restricts major airlines' connection carriers from operating equipment carrying 50 or more passengers to guard against usurpation of Air Line Pilots Association and Allied Pilots Association pilots' union contract. Pinnacle Airlines had operated some with 44 seats, designated as CRJ440, with closets in the forward areas of the passenger cabin, though these were converted to 50 seat airplanes. The CRJ200 is identical to the 100 model except for more efficient engines.
