And please, I hate it when I hear 86 seat rumors, Q-400 rumors, and EMB-190 rumors for companies that have 70 seat scope clauses. Shut up, it will not happen!
Well hate it all you like bit that's what UAL wants; spoke to the ZW DCA Chief Pilot and that's what we've been asked to bid on. 10 Q's in Den and and another 40 aircraft made up of 50's/70's and 90 seat airframes outfitted with 86 seats.
