I had not considered the CRJ but you bring up some good points about it being in ORD and potentially being able to displace.

As far as equipment goes, I would be happy flying all 3 planes, the desire for the 175 was just from wargaming getting to where I would like to be based. Getting to ORD should be no problem as it seems to be far junior to DFW and living in base is what is the most important.

145 should not be too bad, but I think there is a chance, especially with the summer and the potential for expanded operations out of LGA to be stuck commuting for a while before I can hold ORD even on reserve. This could end up being just a few months, where in the scheme of things its not too bad.

Based on the input here I think I would still prefer the 175, then the CRJ, then the 145.

Thank you.
