Default Republic Airlines New Aircraft

Heard through the grapevine that N161HQ and N162HQ are ERJ-190s. They are repossed GECAS aircraft that are sitting in Stamford, CT. They were previously working for a defunct Australian airline. Curious, I looked at the adjacent tail numbers registrations. N100HQ-N199HQ are reserved by Republic Airlines.

You do realize that there isn't an airport in Stamford, CT? The closest one is Bridgeport, CT where the longest runway is 4700ft (not sure on how long a rwy the 190 needs) or White Plains, where unless you are stupidly rich it is super expensive to park an aircraft without any real intentions to fly it.

Just saying I'm waiving the BS flag.

BS to what? I think he meant figuratively speaking they're in CT. AFS is the brokering company that I used to backdoor the airplanes onto our property.

Look it up in the FAA registry. Then put your BS flag away. Do the research, then choke yourself.

jeez a little hostile are we? And I will concede that outside of N161HQ and N162HQ they are reserved to RAH. You sound like you're excited about the possibility of 190's going to RAH. Until there is concrete evidence of RAH aquiring these aircraft I'm gonna think its a bunch of bunk. Sorry I'm just a little skeptical of every thread that starts with "I heard through the grapevine...."

Figuratively speaking he picked the exact town saying "They are sitting 'here'"? This is funny.

I don't think anybody should be excited about 190s coming to regionals

This is the most current Airworthiness Certificate data, however, it may not reflect the current aircraft configuration. For that information, see the aircraft record. A copy can be obtained at Http://162.58.35.241/e.gov/ND/airrecordsND.asp



I dont see any where in which it says they are reserved by RAH. In addition this plane would not be allowed under any scope currently out there. Unless they were to take them to the Island.

Not that I want 190s here, but the scope is limited to the number of seats, not the size of the aircraft. RAH could by 777s, as long as they had 76 seats.

I'd rather see Republic go bankrupt and sit on unemployment than see us fly 190's for another carrier. Just to be clear.
