“Trannies” is spelt with a capital “T”. Learn some respect, boy.

So we can have vulgar user names as long as they are in another language? Sweet.

Most every Citrus pilot I've flown with is a stand up guy/gal and a pleasure to fly with.

Delta has the A220-100 with 109 PAX.

That is what I was comparing to the B737-700 with 143 PAX.

This is how long ago the AirTran merger was...as of the last class, 50%+ of the pilots on the current list are post integration.

Seeing how Southwest has parked planes bc of a lack of pilots why the hell would they start using a type smaller than the -700? It just doesn't make sense in the current environment.

Because Boeing has hung us out to dry after decades of supporting their company buying their 60 yr old steampunk POS. There should have been a guppy replacement on the market 10 yrs ago, no matter what SWA beancounters told them. And just this year Boeing told the world that the 737 replacement is on indefinite hold. I don't think SWA needs any more small airplanes either, but there doesn't seem to be many options. A220-300s and A321NEO would be an "upgrade" from the switch forest steampunk nightmare we're currently flying, but the real answer is a completely new design optimized for 140-230 pax, not a tiny airplane that maxes out around 140 and absolutely nothing above that other than a shorty 787.

Boeing and Airbus have both completely abandoned the 140-200 pax NB market, because the MAX and 320 family continue to sell in spite of being hopelessly obsolete. A4A ought to do what they're supposed to be doing for the industry as a whole, leaning on both Airbus and Boeing to come up with a guppy and 320 replacement sooner rather than later.

Also A4A should be leaning on the president to fix KCM but that's another rant entirely...

You mean like this?

The company nor Boeing does not care about your comfort in the Boeing 737. The oldest variant the NG came out in 1997. We are still flying that today. The max was relaunched in what 2021? Be prepared to be flying this airplane for a very long time. Anything else you will be just kidding yourself and setting yourself up for disappointment. Now don’t get me wrong I do think we will have an airplane in about 10-15 years but it will be in such a low number and go mega senior. But I also think it will be be bigger and in very low numbers.
