So it doesn’t matter if it’s a 175SC or a 175, if RG is furloughed they both should be reduced to 70 seat aircraft.
As too which 76 seat aircraft need to be parked because of the flow down language; DALPA will try and attach it to the “heavy” 175s, but the language points to the number of “76 seat jets”.
Then if for some reason they can wiggle out of the weight issue for them, we should at least press for max certifiable seating. Make them recertify them. There can be no quarter for large RJ scope violations.
