Basic physics, aerodynamics, and leverage.

This aircraft will be bent in flight to the point of structural failure...

It's only a matter of time...

But... any landing you walk away from is good landing.. right?

(so says the pilot who doesn't know how to land an airplane)



Bottom line, the CRJ900 is dangerous.

I guess I assumed you were talking bending moment due to length of aircraft. But considering the garbage on this place anymore, who knows what this is

The MD80/88 and MD90 are a greater stretch in percentage of length from the DC-9-10 than the CRJ-900 is from the CRJ-100.

How many of those have experienced structural failures?

More than one has.... and that is one too many.

Do you disagree?
