Yeah JetJock, but remember, the customer's don't want those "little puddle jumpers", they want jets. And the customer is always right, so the customer gets the jets.

FWIW, I have a friend who refuses to fly on turboprops, so I found her a flight on a CRJ200- that was still too small for her! Unless it's an A320 or larger, it's "one of those little planes".
