We'll see....
FlyingKat, thanks, for the new info. I was in the Delta Connection side for 20 year and watched Delta give up Scope. The IMHO it was the biggest mistake they ever made.
Now if United comes in and somehow has total control of United Express and turns this thing around it might work for both sides.
Have you heard anything about the CRJ-550 is having a range problem due to scope weights. I've heard that the 550 will only have a 300 mile range. I can't confirm that yet.
