Nice to see. I wonder what their long term plans are for the E170. I know they prefer the E190 but I wonder if they will slowly remove the 170 from the fleet or move the 170 to current ER3/4 routes and slowly remove the ER3/4s. Obviously they might just keep all the planes and expand but it wouldn't surprise me to see them simplify the fleet if it made sense financially and they could fill a 170 on say MSN-MKE or GRB-MKE. With wifi and stretch the 170 would probably be a good fit for some lighter business markets.
