[WhatRUSmokinGL?]

Wow,

Sure glad DALPA stood up and didn't give anything on scope!

Way to hold strong...

Good Job!

Sentence structure and grammar are two things that (apparently) are NOT taught at Riddle...

Computer game cult classics something NOT taught in the real world!

Apparently the joke eluded you.

 

[Flyer1015]

No, I've heard it before, in all combinations: all your base are belong to us, all your routes are belong to us, all your aircraft are belong to us, etc. etc.

I figured it was from a computer game.

I just wanted to knock on Riddle folks. Hence the "" face.

If you're knocking on riddle folks, you're knockin the wrong girl.

I'm bizzaro-riddle!

Hard Knocks!:blush:

 

[Flyer1015]

wms, we've spoken via PM before.

I know you aren't from Riddle.

Again, I knew the sentence was a reference to a game. I only wanted to knock on Riddle folks. It's just too easy!

 

[wms]

Are these aircraft actually 705's?? Maybe someone can enlighten me on the difference between the 705 and 900. Based on Bombardiers website I can't seem to see a difference besides the number of seats they are putting in them.

My understanding is the the -705's were built mainly for Air Canada (Jazz) and are not able to be re-configured to 86/90 seats. The -900's are what DL ordered and are capable of upgrading them to higher seating capacity than the current 76 scope limit (if the scope limit is changed). I think there are range/fuel differences also between the -705/-900's.

More mainline domestic planes are on the way (used MD90s from China is the current rumor, around 20 or so, and some will go to SLC and take back some RJ routes), and more 50 seaters are on the way out. I would think that would be great for revenue generation, and it would help nonrevs get on. Getting rid of 50 seaters that are unprofitable is a good thing. But, you never mentioned that part.

Why didn't DALPA get a reduction of 50 seater as a quid pro quo for giving in on relaxing the scope?

Beacuse the 50 seat RJ problem is going to take care of itself in the near future.
