Whenever you hear about more large regional jets be very suspicious. The new scope language limits the amount of LRJ's to 120. There are already more than 120 in the combined systems. As Delta puts on more aircraft above the to be established base number then 3 LRJ's for every mainline jet can appear. I just don't see those numbers of mainline jets increasing with the planned parking of some and delivery of others in the near future. The only other way is if someone who is now operating LRJ's is pushed out. Lets hope that that doesn't happen either as it could be your airline.
