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.
I don't really know what it'll take to get those things back to mainline but maybe eventually they will be there? As far as calling it what it is..... there's a difference between calling it what it is and what it is not. Sure, we can all pretend that you fly a 75.... thought I've never heard of anyone referring to anything but a
Boeing aircraft as a 75. Maybe you can start a trend?

Alright, yeah you're right, "brah" sounds a bit juvenile. But it seems to be gaining traction outside of HI, oddly enough, so I thought I'd throw it out there.
By the way, Pinnacle flight attendants spike their hair, not the pilots. Haven't met a one with spiked hair.
