Oh my gawd! Ouch indeed! Those 10 first class seats on that plane will go for a premium I am sure. Wow.

There will be plenty of fuel stops in the winter probably, especially when SLC weather is no bueno and a fat alternate is required.

 

[ACL65PILOT]

Actually the range numbers on the 900 block aircraft are really good. Zero wing endurance with IFR reserves is over six hours. Because it will only have 70 or 76 seats it will not be payload restricted and can take full fuel and payload on all flights that are not landing limited. Delta is also looking at this aircraft doing Central and South American cities out of ATL.

 

[YourPilotFriend]

Rest assured the pilots will make the same regardless of aircraft size.

Did you insert that part??

 

[FlyBoeingJets]

Look for a lot more of the "Ouch I can't feel my legs" at Delta.

Net loss of 737 lift with the switcharoo on boeing orders means less mainline on domestic routes. Here comes the Regional flying.

Use your frequent flyer miles while you can without pain!!!!

And I'll say it again: If Jen Lee and 50.1% of his DALPA buddies had not caved on scope, it still would be a mainline route.

I don't want to hear one word, General, about regionals "taking" this flying: small-jet operators only fly what mainline scope clauses allow them to.

You voted to give the flying away and the industry takes another step backwards.
