I am sure they would prefer the 76 seater.
Ok I will give you one good one. DAL and SKW committed to four 70 seat jets. It means that the scope limit on the 76 seat jets has held. If there was going to be more 76 seat jets allowed they would have waited. They went ahead and committed to a smaller jet for their needs.
You can take that two ways. One we will not grow enough to allow more 76 seat jets, or that the allow 76 seat jet ratio is a hard limit that your MEC has not budged on. I prefer the latter!
