Of course it doesn't say anything about operating too many "Larger than Large SJ's" because there is no such term used by US Airways. In my opinion, Hetman made that up, unless he proves me wrong.
RAH recently secured their contract in exchange for giving Airways some $$$ during debt refinancing, so I don't see why RAH would move 170's to Portland. All 25 of the US Airways mainline E190 confirmed deliveries have been made, so "replacing" a mainline E190 onto a flight that used to be flown by an Express Large SJ means that the former E190 flight will then have to be covered by other mainline equipment.
