sktbewd all aircraft have problems!!!! look at all of our planes. 330 and 340 are all breaking down all the time. and not trying to stick up for EMB's bhut they are wat cheaper to run then 318's that is the reason no major airline operates 318's. and as far as sticking to a plan i agree but first u actually have to have a plan that is sensible. anyways if u actually wanted to learn about this u would read the specs on these aircraft. look for yourself GF is making a good decision if they are gog into short haul routes.
