I think the MRJ has more than 76 seats, and we didn't gain any pay for an increase in that number. That number has not moved. Wikipedia says that plane is 70-90 seats. I suppose they could have a 76 seat version if they are within the scope limits.

So Skywest has ordered 100 of these things that will seat 78 people in the smaller version and 86 in the larger. Trans States also has 50 orders and 50 options.
Does your new scope clause allow 76 seats or 78?
Skywest and trans states could be hoping to fly them for American but the deliveries are slated for 2017 so is this Skywest hoping scope is lifted to 86 seats in your 2015 contract?
Seems like Skywest and TSA are banking their entire futures on these things.

In europe, regionals already fly 190's (KLM Cityhopper) We have to stop this trend! Hire me and I will help!

Does anyone know how you get all the new manual option onto your ipad? I couldn't find any guidance on Deltanet.

I'm glad you'll be retired too. Congratulations. You've obviously done a terrific job your entire career not selling out on scope. You should be proud of your accomplishments.

The registration link is under Automated Manuals and Bulletins. I think it has to register you and send you a link - once you have that you follow the instructions and then magically the manuals appear. It's a pretty non-standard iPad process.

Hold on. Doesn't the "RAH exemption" only exempt RAH from operating "other than permitted aircraft"? I don't have a reference but it seems to me that if SKYW(or anyone else except RAH) actually places an aircraft over 76 seats into service then they can no longer be a DCI carrier....

What am I missing?

That's what I thought.

Correct. Section 1.D.2.C is a good place to start.

I think I have this right.

Start with the obvious,

7ER: Handsome, cocky, owns the world and really wants to be with the A330.

A330: Enjoys the trips, wants more 7ER time. Just can't figure out how to do it.

744: Think about it, stops to watch you go by. Some flat out stare. And really, who do you want to be seen with when you walk into a social setting? When people ask, what do you do, you want to say the 744.

764: You rarely see it, but you know they're making an A.

A320: Happy.

777: Solid. Boring. Money marker.

DC9: Smaller than the 88 but looks very similar.

MD88: I never study and I smile like I never study.

737: Like a maid, always there. Reliable. Frumpy.
Marsha's the 747....It's always Marsha,Marsha,Marsha.

True.

If they fly them as 76 seat jets, they fall under scope cap limits. The carve out was just for RAH. Right now however according to the contract SKYW can not fly them for us unless they come in under MGW and 76 seats...
