Well, I hope they buy 195 to AA. Nothing bigger than 170/175 for regionals.

I bet these same people publish the Jepps...
I think everyone is confused cus I noticed too the article keeps getting edited on a regular basis. They've edited it several times since noon.

I'm noticing that too. In the past 15 minutes, they've removed the "Update 2", then put it back. I think we need to wait until the close of business today to figure out what's going on.

The E190 comment I believe refers to AA creating a B-scale for this aircraft on the TA.

Let's hope that if they do, that the "group" flying them are pilots at American Airlines.... and not the feed/contract carriers (aka regionals).

Well, and accurately said.

(Also, those SJS kids tell everyone they "fly for American Airlines" anyway.

I can't even begin to count the amount of people I hear or see do it on Facebook.

It does make one laugh just a bit though

Yes..there was actually some thought behind my question..not "ooh me get to fly big plane!"

I just didn't have time to elaborate because I was in line at wal-mart buying more hair gel
