We do it manually. There is a fuel page on the UNS that most use to check math. There are also a couple unofficial apps out there. The only FAA approved method for CG calculations is to spin the wheel though. It takes about 30 seconds, no big deal.

My bet. PDT Goes all E145, then, we add E175/190 and retire the E145s. 2020

Mainline won't scope out the 190, and that's a good thing.
