I was talking with the C5 DO recently and he said that Subodh's original plan at C5 was to retire the Dash, transition to the 145XRs and then go dual type with the 175. Sound familiar to you guys?
C5 is going to stay a single type shop, if for no other reason than we don't have the resources to manage two types. Hell, they just sent company-wide emails asking for LCPs, ground, and sim instructors because we're bleeding talent.
