40 have homes with UA, 260 are still firm orders without them, and there is still 300 options out there. I doubt we really see 600 aircraft delivered. Most of these don't come out of the factory for quite some time anyway, probably coincidentally with CRJ/ERJ's coming off leases. Actually by the time most of these new 175-E2s come out in the early 2020's most of their CRJ7/9s will be pushing over 15 years old. I have heard from management that a specific partner wanted the MRJ, but not sure who. I really think SkyWest isn't going to grow much if at all, just either shrink and replace 50's with larger RJ's or just keep its current size of operation.
