Interesting discussion here... Embraer technically does have the new E2 variant available for the 175 with those shiny new PW geared engines, but they sort of shot themselves in the foot by increasing the max weight to 98,000.

I believe most of the 700 fleet is nearing 20 years.
it was actually the missed approach procedure that was the problem and not the balked landing. I was an ASE CA at SkyWest when they were testing the 175 with the FAA. It could not meet the 13DME from Red Table VOR to join the LDA outbound. It went passed the 13DME.
I was also expecting the balked to be the problem but it seemed to handle that well. They were rumors that SkyWest would ask Embraer to make a software change to give a 3rd engine thrust capability which would run a little higher.

Got it? Good.
