I like you Mesaba, but when we're doing 1200 mile flights that isn't too replace mainline frames overall it's to support them. I'll take my 3 leg 7.5 hour block 9 hour duty days happily.

You don't think regional flying replaces mainline airframes? That's cute.

The guys at air wisconsin talked about the 146 going into Aspen like it was the second coming of Jesus. Idk what about a plane with 5 APUs is so appealing 😎
