Will the MRJ fly at Skywest and TSA?
 
I'm sorry, but sexy don't pay the bills.......... It's your pay that matters - not how the airplane looks on the ramp. That said, this is a nice looking airplane. Will we see the MRJ at SkyWest and Transstates flying for the legacies some day? What are the latest thoughts/predictions? :confused::D

I hope this airplane comes with a search function.

So you essentially opened this thread just to fap off to an airplane that has been fapped off by many other threads in APC? Niceeee

I doubt it. Doesn't this violate every legacies scope?

The MRJ90 that they both have on order does. The smaller MRJ70 doesn't

I think even the MRJ70 violates at least some scope on MGTOW, even if the seat count is low enough.

Never underestimate mainline pilots willingness so sell their souls or the souls of their JR brethren for a few sheckels.

The non-ER MRJ70 is only at 81k lbs MTOW. I think even the ER version is at 86K. Above that is where the trouble is, no?

I think the problem is the MRJ70 seats less than 70 in a typical dual class configuration. There's no chance that mainline pilots allow an increase in allowable weight for the MRJ90.

Oh I totally agree, just pointing out, that, in theory, part of the MRJ series would be legal to be operated at a regional under current scope clauses. And I too hope that mainline doesn't give one more inch of scope up.
