80,000 cycles is the service life of a DC-9. No way the CRJ is built even close to reaching those numbers. You can't even rub up against it without it denting.

Please, you're probably thinking of the ERJ which is made out of paper. The Canadair is a very solid machine.
 
Here's another article that makes things even more confusing:

http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=1091830209821&call_pageid=968350072197&col=968705923364

They mention the 32 CRJ's being delivered next year, but as we all know CMR isn't supposed to get those. 25 are supposed to go to ASA and 7 to SKYW.

Of course, it could just be bad media reporting. My guess is that the financing is either for additional CRJ's to replace the FRJ's OR financing for the remaining CR7's being delivered later this year (although I would think CMR already had those financed).

I was just going to suggest this same thing.
