SOPs,

only 1880m required for a -1000
Reality check, mate. Is that at ISA and SL? If it's not at ISA+25, then the -1000 will be a dead duck in WA.

Doorstop,
-1000 looks like a mean beast. 41.6 tonne MTOW with 28,000 lb trust per side.
That's 28k total. Try that verses 53t/42,000lb for the 717. Mind you, IF you can get me a CF-34 that does produce 28,000lb, I know an operator that would like to put a couple on some high-wing flying hairdryers...

Could be some VMCG/VMCA issues there

So,

with the dust settling from the q400 problems, what does the future hold for the ssa/eea dash fleet?

Same old stuff or something new? Virgin bush is going to crush the qlink monopoly unless they act soon.
