I'll probably catch some slack for this, but I'm also in the school of thought that 500 fpm to cruise altitude ought to be reason enough to keep that aircraft in the lower flight levels until everyone else with better performance has climb to cruise.

I wish Bombardier had installed beefier engines on the CRJ's so they could climb.
