My vote is for the 200 EAS garbage we're picking up.

My vote is for the 200's in general. The split controls are dead. Long live the FADEC.

I still can't believe that there are believers who believe in the believability of more CRJ 900 lites coming our way. It is just so unbelievable.

But my neighbors friends babysitter saw them

I too would guess 200 flying is reduced first if it comes to it.
The recent acquiring of more EAS routes has been a direct result of previous at-risk flying being changed by mainline to contract flying. They say they want to keep at-risk flying at 10%, so they threw out bids.

At some point here a contract won’t be renewed.

Edit: American 175s!!!

Yeah - and all of them a left pocket / right pocket. Gloating over the ASA birds and the 30 DL 175SC which were really traded for the 30 ASA 700 is a little misplaced here. The only "real" industry growth are the AS birds.

And yes, it is nice to see "growth" here but be careful how this is being perceived.

As for 900 lite - that was a very convenient rumor at the time of the TA. My guess is that we will not see any factory new airplanes coming to SKYW any more. More 175? Probably but I wouldn't count on CRJ.
