I'm rated for the B757 and its aircraft group, but want to fly a route that is CRJ-900, which is not included in that group. Can I do this?

Sure. As long as your rated aircraft can make the trip with legal fuel reserves, you're welcome to fly any route in our database. Feel free also to fly the historical routes (DVH, NEH, etc.)
