Can anyone provide more detailed info on the RJ-200 problem???

Sounds fishy. If there were a structural problem that required slower
speeds, I would think the FAA would ground the fleet. And, who would
fly them anyway with such a limitation?

They didn't ground the Bonanzas when they issued the very restrictive
speed limit on them. 250K**I**AS doesn't sound like much of a
limitation though. That's pretty darn fast at Jet altitudes.
