To answer your question - in my opinion - the 50 seat scope is lost. The current situation is the 70 seat to 90 seat scope. That is where the line is drawn depending on the airline. Until it is unprofitable to operate them it is something that we must deal with.

CAL and AA have not given it up.. CAL is still restricting its affiliates to 50 seats. APA has limited Eagle to 25 70 seaters..

AA has already approached APA about E-170-190 aircraft to Eagle and other affiliates. NO WAY, I do not care how much the pay raise is, that is a NO vote.. I have seen the destruction of United in the form of Republic. I am watching the demise of Midwest though Republic..
