The CRJ700 is in between and does not fall in that category.

I guess you could call a jumbo RJ a DC-9 replacement jet (DC9RJ). Works.

Of course, our net income is net of 1.962 Billion dollar write down on investments. US Air carries a third of our long term debt.
Overall, US Air's financials are significantly better than ours when you start looking at metrics like current ratios and earnings / assets. Not saying I'd like to work there. Just stating the truth that they have eeked better performance out of a buck. Much of that is attributable to paying under market rates for labor.

FTB, you've just outed yourself as a head-in-the-sand non-believer! Still think the earth is flat, too? Don't you realize all respectable scientists (who want continued grant money) have confirmed global warming is a fact, and the scientist who believe in scientific questioning, testing, measuring, and scientific theory are naysayers driven purely for profit and political reasons only? I'm actually being kind. If this were a forum for scientists we'd have you purged from our presence!

I'm still not sure if GunshipGuy was serious or being sarcastic.
