Since we are resorting to my plane can beat up your plane...

Well at least we won't go deaf at an earlier than necessary age....hope you brought some ear plugs for that brazilia jet.

The ERJ is like most American women. Always overweight.

Nice.......I know I started it but I don't have enough time in my life to continue to play the "my plane is better then yours" game.

Going back to the original thread... The Mesa USAirways 900 has 86 seats, no first class and the Freedumb 900 (soon to be the Pinnacle 900) is a "Next Gen" (whatever that means) and has 12 first and 74 coach seats.

That reminds me, anyone else know about www.seatguru.com For those of us who non rev or J/S often, it's kind of a neat little site.

Not all of F8's -900s are NextGens. 3 out of the 13 that Comair has are NGs. And the NextGen seating arrangement is the same as the original versions: 12F/64Y (F8 and OH, but not OO)

I have to ask why are we bragging about airplanes/companies that personify "racing to the bottom?" :confused: An 86 seat jet should be in mainline hands for mainline $. Rant over, carry on.

I think Mesa flies the CR9 with like 88 some seats for US Airways, and speaking of Mesa CRJ9! Nice going dude!

Fuel for the "my plane is better" fire:

The E-170/175/190 has wider coach seats than any aircraft at USAirways mainline, and the seat pitch is equal to or exceeds that of any USAirways mainline aircraft. I didn't bother to check every mainline carrier, but the larger embraers seem to have bigger seats than most every plane in Domestic mainline fleets, save for some 777 operators.

Don't worry, my SJS hard-on soon went away when I saw that the widest coach seats available on any USAirways aircraft were on the mighty Beech 1900!

And I have flown them both, love em for different reasons! The only bad seat in the mighty Beech is middle row 9!
