That was the guy who compiled the list on airliner's net deal. Many passengers consider those mainline equivalent aircraft.
We'll see a good amount fewer CRJ200s and more CRJ900s when the 717s come in.
There's already a significant shift to mainline out of ATL due to the natural economics of it. We're starting MLI on the airbus in June, adding to a number of previously all RJ cities.
