American likes and wants the 175, there is talk about sending one or two of our superduper senior training/test pilots to school on it. Company is holding off just so they don't get caught up in the threesome Eagle, AMR, and Republic are having.
Also if you were in the industry of selling A/C, wouldn't you fly one up the show the big wigs. It's all about sales. I'm sure the fokes at EMB scheduled the showing rather than us.
