Where do you get your information? My understanding is that there are somewhere around 40 orders for Boeings. 30 something max’s And 9 900s? There we be 70+ Airbuses before there is a reduction if leases expire. There are also 30 320 neos to cancel. This by my calculation is a loss of around 30 airframes total?
The “fleet planning guy” said we could possibly have around 500 airframes by 2024. Maybe we can expect 100s of 175s! After all Skywest does have 100s of 175 on order. Most west coast RJ service!
