I'm struggling to see the upside weighed against these downsides.
On top of that, none of Horizon's E-175s are scope compliant because they're the 86,000lb variant. I'm not sure what would be required to bring them into compliance, or if that's even possible, but I bet it wouldn't be cheap.

Wouldn't need any change at all to the GW . . . . As long as the pilots flying them were on our seniority list and flying them at our rates

Management doesn't really care about those things.

A check made out to Embraer fixes that tiny problem.
