I’m actually interested in other people’s opinions (not flame throwing trolls). Scope is maxed out and there are only so many CRJ-700’s available for conversion. United has a bunch of 50 seat jets operating that will need to be replaced in the not too distance future. With scope what it is, what are the options? Embraer is pushing the 170/175 line and not really selling new 145’s, the E2 jets are too heavy, customers prefer larger planes, United is pushing 2 class service......
