While they aren't barn burning numbers, the growth rate has improved here.

Just guessing but my money says the old Kirbster knows when to use You’re (you are) vs your. As in you’re welcome.

I just got confirmation from my LEC that these EMB-175s are going to be 70 seats only.

My guess is Mesa, which will use them to replace the GoJet CR7s. It'll be like watching roaches fight.

The solution is clearly to put 76 seats in them, but with 6 reserved only for pass travel.

He did not. My guess is that since they are replacing CRJ 700s, they will probably go to the carrier that has the CRJ 700s being replaced.

Perfect. Assuming that mainline pilots get first choice of window or aisle.
