Where are all these 100+ MRJ orders going to go? They'll workout a deal where they'll trade the weight limit for the amount of seats, everybody wins.
We (pilots) do not want to dump the 190. This is a management decision. Something has to replace the flying though. The 319 is used for this flying as well. We don't retire them until the end of 2019 so I hope we see a replacement at mainline by then. I would think by now we have learned our lesson with scope.
