I guess the plane is a crap shoot. What plane could we use to replace it? I was thinking the EMB 195. Can the 195 beat the 717 numbers?

I vote CV-990. Or maybe the VFW-614. Google it.

I vote for the L188 Electra for historical reasons. Rollin King's original SWA concept was in that airplane.

At least the EMB-145 rides like chit and is noisy in the cockpit, I think these disposable new generation A/C are nothing we Pilots should want, I would prefer boeing come up with something efficient, at least I know it will be a pleasure to fly!

Think geared turbo-fan
