I know it's already been said here, but it seems the FAA sequester has eliminated any chance California Pacific will get E175's for UAL. Just found this article...
FAA: Can't Process New CA Airline Application Due to Sequester - Really? :: Fox&Hounds
Also heard yesterday that the sequester is affecting the issuance of certificates for new training programs. Anyone else heard of this? Apparently, the FAA does not have the manpower to oversee the development of new training programs at any airlines currently. If this is true, then any carriers not currently operating the E175 would be eliminated.

Well that makes sense now, SkyWest INC, just ordered another 100 Ejets, with options for another 100. Thats a total of up to 360 unassigned on a order log if they all come out. It appears that the the future of the fleet replacement is now visible.
