I know c-tower wants more planes, but they also want to protect our performance and when we got EV planes performance went down in lock-step with the amount of flying those planes took on. That’s why those 700s spent so much time in conformity. If we get CA tails it’s the same story.
Every G7 CA tail I ever flew needed at least 2 clicks of rudder trim after takeoff. Those airframes are all bent...and with single FMS, senior FOs never bid them.
