Better be CS300's if AAG is even "in talks"

Also, don't forget to mention the comment about expanding internationally. LAX and DFW specifically, the real push for growth is more international flying. A new route every 9 months they say.
The guy leading the FOS project is confident about the Sept 2016 single FOS, who clearly knows more than Kirby. In fact, if I recall correctly he said it will be done April 2016 and then five months of testing...so conceivably if all goes well, it could be done earlier but Sept 16' gives them enough slack room.

I've read from a few sources that the E-jets aren't providing the economy some airlines would like to have (specifically JetBlue). Supposedly the CS-series surpassed their test goals, and it wouldn't be completely shocking to see AAG order a bunch of CS-series airplanes and can the E190s we currently operate.
That being said, I don't think the either E190 or the CS100 are beneath being mainline airplanes. For some reason a lot of people have that sentiment. I'm happy if the company gets either airplane instead of trying to put more E175s at various regionals.

Why PHX is the crown jewel to any network carrier.
Despite the fact they fly 24% of the their block hours on East routes, that they did not bring to the merger, it is an evil East empire keeping them off the widebodies they so richly deserve.
Just ask them.

The DC-9 and F-28 did the flying that the E190 does today. Actually they did even shorter legs (PIT-ERI for example). My beef with the current E190 flying is lack of destinations. You go to the same select few places over and over.
I actually liked the commuter flying, I would bid the Group I A/C if we started taking over the 50-76 seat routes and going to some of the smaller airports and had it hubbed out of CLT. It was fun flying. I'd do that until I could hold a Group IV A/C.
