Heard this started out as a group of 50 (or so) aircraft. However after vetting out the bad maintenance and poor records it dwindled to half. Still a very good thing.

There are mainline pay rates for the CS300. They can be flown at mainline; no need to subcontract the work.

Excerpt from the article:
Integral to the plan is removing 50-seat jets flown by United's regional contractors, which can waste more fuel per passenger than larger planes. The carrier said it will take 130 of these aircraft off its schedule by the end of 2015, with more cuts to come later.

Music to my ears

sCAL pilots would have enjoyed this obsoletedness much more with a 50 seat scope clause...
