I guess you don't remember Freedom? I know that we "handed" that certificate back in, but I'm guessing that resurrecting it would be easier than staffing any 200 flying we might get.
I pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that we don't ever see another 200 that does more than keep our pay rates down. Worst thing ever. The only upside is that maybe some of the CA in IAD who came from ORD would go there if they had an MSP base.
We don't need more 200 flying. What we need is more CRJ flying for UA, if GoJet can get some, we should be able to also...the EJet is nice, but those of us who are die hard CRJ drivers need more too...

First, the supposed GoJet flying is for Delta. Second, do you honestly think new planes are handed out like candy? "They can get some, so why can't we?" Everything has to fit within their route network, fleet planning and scope clauses. Third, it should be pretty obvious at this point that United doesn't like the CR7, they aren't adding anymore; in fact their fleet plan shows a few airframes leaving the fleet this year.

Comparing flying a 200 to a 175 is like driving a '79 moped you found on the streets of Guadalaja vs a 2015 BMW X5.
These are facts.

There's really no appreciable difference in any of those planes.
