The MRJ sees the light of day


Recommended Posts

A very nice looking future competitor to the Embraer ERJ and the Bombardier CRJ was displayed for the first time by Mitsubishi earlier this week..

Some short tid-bits from the article:

 

The MRJ is equipped with a Rockwell Collins' Pro Line Fusion flight deck and Pratt & Whitney's PW1200 Geared Turbofan engines.

 

The first test flights are scheduled for the second quarter of next year.

 

Two versions, the 92-seat MRJ90 and 78-seat MRJ75 are planned for production.

 

So far there are 402 planes ordered with ANA as the launch customer.

 

Can't wait to see a full scale version of this one for FSX, that Pro Line Fusion flight deck looks real sweet. A demo can be found here.
