The 50 seaters are going to start timing out in big numbers the next couple years with no modern replacement on the horizon or even in consideration, (Embraer will still build a 145, however, that's a tough sell.) What will the future hold for Regionals without solid futures tied to majors? I doubt they will just go away without a whimper. This rumored MRJ doubledown may be an indication of what's being considered.
