Mrj 70/90
#51
The MRJ70 is not yet built, it's planned to have 76 seats though to comply with current scope, expected in 2021. Both models will have around 2000 mile range.

Let's see if United pilots can pull the 76 seater in house and put an end to all this.

Economically, it doesn't matter if it's heavier, as long as the fuel burn is good enough. Scope is still an issue of course.

No, you didn't.
A B scale is an entirely different issue. The regional model is nefarious in its own way as regional pilots traditionally voted to undercut other groups to get their flying. The shortage at hand has greatly helped prevent that, but the two things are different.
There are many areas to blame for the regional model and its continuity. While I agree that the way regional pilots have been paid (and still are when in direct comparison) is shameful, there is a lot to differentiate it from a B scale.
