The mrj90 in a 2 class configuration seats the same number of people as a crj900 or erj175. It is heavier and longer but its capacity is the same. My opinion is that amr and ucal will face pressure to include this aircraft in their new scope clauses simply to put pressure on crj/erj operators.
Seems that way sometimes!
I agree on the MRJ. Even the MRJ 70ER just barely squeaks under the MGTOW limit of 86,000 lbs @ 85,969 lbs. I wouldn't be surprised to see it come on line above that weight, eliminating it from being operated by regionals.
