Exactly. Scope is for sale depending on the price. A potential good deal could be in exchange for the 35 RJs, park every 50 seater and generate a new block hour ratio formula similar to C2012 and the 717s except this time include the 220s on order. This will probably cue some folks screaming the 50 seaters are going away anyway but that was said in 2016 and here we are 5 years later and the 50 seaters are still in abundance.

Scope Choke... Instead of swinging for the moon and proposing full sweep, economically unviable measures like bring Endeavor pilots into mainline or have Delta fly the 35 RJs, we should propose a plan that gradually reduces the overall footprint of DCI while growing SNB mainline jets.
