I've doen IAH-CLL all 15 min of flight. IAH-PSP, IAH-NAS are always fun. They took away IAH-BOI.

CAL doesn't allow any regional partners to fly hub to hub revenue flights.

Just recently, I know PHL-CLT in 200 was operating on Saturdays

PHX-MEM was a long flight on a Mesa 900.
MEM-BOS is the longest I've done on the 200.

DTW-TOL was picked up for a while by Pinnacle on the 200. Mesaba does MEM-SLC and MSP-BOI on the 900. Those are some painful routes the other way. And the hub to hub stuff is silly and very unfortunate for commuters hoping for open seats.

ORD-MKE-ORD 12 min flight 22 min taxi in to the gate from 27R in the 145!

back in my skyway days in the 328 we did MKE-MSN in about 12 min, but we would go all the way to BDL as well. On a bad headwind day we would have to stop in CLE for more gas!!!

I'd say anything under 300 miles and anything over 2 hours flight time.

WOW MKE-BDL required a fuel stop! And I thought the Avro had lousy range for a jet.

SAT-SFO or ORD-YEG on the 700. Blocks over 4 often and the seats are barely better than the 200.
