So can't I call mine a 75? Or must I say EMB170-200 when refering to the 175? Btm line who cares. It's an 86 seat passenger aircraft that should be operated as a mainline aircraft by mainline pilots. However, if they won't fight to get it, I am not going to fight to give it to them. I got an idea, how about have scope limit them to 700 miles? Then we could fly it full all year long. How about not allowing hub to hub operations. Make the feeder its supposed to be.
I did find it funny how you say "not to be a nerd" while in fact engaging in nerdism.
