Hey all,

I recently passed the checkride for the MD-88 thinking that would also get me in the bigger ERJ's, but I still don't see them in my rated aircraft list, nor are they available to me in ACARS. My question is which aircraft type are the ERJ-170's and 190's included in?

Thanks!
Robert

I believe it's the EMB-120.

I think they are attached to the CRJ program. I have them and am not 737 qualified.

Check the promotions manual. You should have them if you are in the MD-88 program. Open a help desk issue and it will be resolved.

Well, I'm in the 737 program but I'm now rated in the MD-88 series as well. Shouldn't I have been granted "rights" to fly the ERJ-170, 190's then?

Thanks for all your replies!

OI would say so. Things get overlooked. The Help Desk should fix you right up
