If you are flying 3.5 hr legs, every trip, it is possible. But no regional should be flying trips that long. That is mainline. When you get to mainline, you will see. If you are flying mainline routes, that is irresponsible.
Republic on the "shuttle" side does this. They do stuff like Newark to Chicago then to Denver and overnight. A three hour leg is a daily flight for them.
