To fill in the rest of DCI and get out of the leases on the 50 seat aircraft they follow with a Q400 order for as many as they desire. Some will be the 78 seat version but I would expect them to get some 90 seaters also when available. The aircraft makes a lot of sense in the NE. In fact I think overall it might be a better long term fleet plan for the company at DCI.
Now if you want to talk about why to vote no lets get back to pay and retirement!

Current PWA limit on prop planes is 70 seats and 70,000 lbs.
