Given we do not know what the full mission profile of this aircraft is, it is hard to define what is the right aircraft.

But I do note that the FAA flys the following aircraft:
  • Challenger 604
  • BAE 125-800
  • Learjet 60
  • Beech Super King Air 300

Of course, the FAA has a greater flight inspection program (around the world), and a much bigger domestic air system to inspect. With Canada being much more small in airways, but bigger in size, one assumes NavCanada cannot have the variety of aircraft an agency such as the FAA.

Again, without a full mission profile, it is mere conjecture as to if the CRJ-200 is the correct aircraft or not.
