Aircraft
On initial climbout we received a master warning 14th stage duct message with the associated bleed air aural message. No anti-ice was on as the weather was VFR. We completed the QRH for the 14th stage duct message which directed us to bring the engine to idle and return to the nearest suitable airport. We declared an emergency with ATC and returned with crash/fire/rescue on standby. We landed without incident; taxied clear of the runway and confirmed with the FA and the fire department that there were no indications preventing us from taxying to the gate. We proceeded to the gate and accomplished a normal deplaning of the passengers.
Shortly after takeoff; during the climb out; we received a master warning 14th Stage duct with an associated bleed air aural message. We ran the QRH which lead us to land at the nearest suitable airport. We declared an emergency with ATC and landed without further incident.
CRJ200 flight crew experiences a master warning for 14th stage duct leak with the associated bleed air aural. An emergency is declared and the flight returns to the departure airport.
