The CRJ wouldn't have the range to fly west bound out of Hawaii. Also, through ANC, no bladder tanks are required.

There are no ETOPS requirements for the CRJ since they are flown Part 91...

The airplane should be arriving in ZLXY (Xian) very soon.

Bombardier didn't like this plan one bit.

How do you mean? Didn't agree technically on the airplane being able to make the flight? Didn't think it could be maintained in China? Didn't want to lose new sales? What?

They didn't like the routing. They recommended the Northern Atlantic route.
