I bet we see 100 and 300. We need lift to replace not only the M88 but the RJs as well. Don't know where the 500 is, but I don't think we'll jump into those.
We have plenty of capacity in the 160 pax regime.

The 100 and 300 would use the exact same engine so the fuel burn difference is negligible due to the GTF. The CS100 is more about short field performance and will sell very little. The current orderbook shows 50 CS100s on order almost all of which are for corporate, and 200 orders for th3 CS300.

I believe they order the plane then tell us we have to accept concessions to get what was already ordered. The new MEC is messing this system up evidently.

Nah, it's just a leftover from the CRJ. Serves two purposes: 1.Pouring water on windshields to get rid of Windshield Overheat messages 2. Verifying the APU exhaust area is clear of ramp personnel for start.

Lmbo.

I get step one. But step 2 has me intrigued.

Do the windows not open? I've got to have my open window.
