I meen come on guys in the last 15 years we went from 50 seats regionals to 76 -86 seats (depending on airline scope).
This plane absolutely is a regional airplane in the true sense of the word. Its meant for short hops of 500NM or less, not the 2 and 3 hour legs that the CR7/9 and E170's do. I agree that I will look quite ridiculous, but I don't think we'll be saying any t-props return to mainline.
