I've only recently seen the NextGen logo on the CRJs into CHA.
My next 2 trips are on CRJ2s, but the first week in March I'll be on a CRJ9, I'll check model of plane and dimensions of opening.
But for the last year or so, my Peli has fit on the 700s and 900s - but unsure of Gen1 or NextGen birds.
I know there is a difference in the opening vs bin depth, so I'll measure both to get accurate dimensions of what will squeeze past the opening vs sit in the well.
