They have been looking at getting 90 to 100 seat aircraft and already tested the EMB190's but it would be stupid to get a different type when they could just get the 1000 and use a comon type like they do for the Q200 and Q400.. That's what I think is gonna go down. Any thoughts
I doubt it is QX. They've talked about interest in the proposed Q400 stretch, but I don't think a super-stretched CRJ really interests them. The EMB190 thing was just a press-play to get Bombardier to sweat a little in light of their poor parts availability and mtx support. Besides, we like our busted-ass Q400's just fine!
