This...ahh....how in the world is this a scope giveaway?

Looks like it falls within existing scope.....?

United's acquisition of newer, larger 76-seat Embraer 175 jets will mean the airline, via its United Express partners, can replace 10 or 11 of its older, fuel-inefficient 50-seaters with about seven new ones.

It obviously falls within existing scope. United has been saying they're going to do this for quite a while.

Relax fellas, poor choce of words on my part.... More "large reginal jet" flying is what I meant. The article would lead one to believe that "larger" jets would mean mainline taking back flying which is not the case....

It will help with the regional shortage.
