Why does everyone on here think that 50 seaters are dinosaurs? Do you think that airlines will consistently fly 70+ seat aircraft into places like KFLO and KPGV? There's no demand for that kind of capacity in lesser populated areas like that. With the limited range and speed of turboprops (not to mention their decreasing popularity), 50 seat jets are needed to serve lower capacity markets. They're not going anywhere.
