Interesting report Ryan, thanks for posting. Cool you got to sit in the Captain's seat on the E-190. Those yokes look interesting - wondering about the ergonomics of those. The cockpit sure looks neat though!

Concorde had a similar yoke design , I think they may be quite comfortable and make control inputs a bit easier , although for the small amount of time the plane is being hand flown it probably is not signifcant .. Great report Ryan , thanks for posting .
