That said, FC seat 1A on the CRJ700 and CRJ900 is an excellent seat if you can manage it.
As someone who spends entirely way too much time on E145s and CRJ200s and who is 190cm (6'3"ish) with a bad back, I'm definitely physically uncomfortable on jungle jets, but I've never felt unsafe. Commercial planes in developed nations are so infinitesimally likely to crash that I don't even think about it. The drive to and from the airport is another thing entirely...
