Delta replacing 50 seater RJs with MD90s

[Max Q]

Amazing. People complaining after clicking on the cheapest ticket.

I flew the CRJ for several years at SkyWest and a lot of people didn't like it because of its size (clausterphobia) It was very common to hear, "This plane is so small". Passengers also didn't appreciate when they or their bags were removed when alternate fuel was added on the CRJ200. Also the banging sound when the landing gear was extended freaked people out. Had a number of passengers tell the flight attendant to tell us that they thought something had fallen off the airplane. I could also go on about the Bengay/B.O. smell that seemed to always be present in the cabin (on SkyWest planes, at least) but I won't. Passengers, also didn't like it when the wx was down and the narrow bodies were getting in with Autolands and the SkyWest RJs had to divert. The regionals need to go back to turboprops.

Reminds me of the restaurant customer who complained: "The food isn't fit to eat -- and the servings are so small!

The 50 seaters are done with gas this high, and 70/76 seaters are only marginally better.
