Makes merging with Hawaiian a breeze.
I have been told by my buds in SEA that Mexicana may want to return the 717 as well. That is just a rumor for the fun of it. Not sure how much traction that one really has.
We didn't talk about retrofitting. Just that, as is, the FAA wants those birds as a separate category, ala ER vs 400. Whether it would be differences training or a whole new course, don't know. Having jumped on a Citrus 717 the other day, there's a lot that's the same but a lot that's very different, too.
