Unless loaded with halve and halve of couples and singles whch could mean 3/4 load.
It would mean that somebody will have to come up with some smart planning software for seating and loading and that slf load limits will depend on the passengers normal cohabitation arrangements.
In all the commuter planes takeover of the 73x/32x market could be shortlived.

As for the repercussions of cancelling the deal: when has the US ever complied with international law when it was not in their own interest? Especially with the current president...

In case you have not figured it out, the US is tired of doing things that are not in our own best interest. You'll get over it so don't worry.

You may be right but I seem to recall the LEND LEASE ACT along with a few others way back when. No need to respond as the thread drift takes away from the original content

I doubt the European taxpayers would look to kindly on Airbus dumping billions of Euros into a foreign acquisition at the same time they are cutting workforce and asking for government assistance.
Only half a speed-brake

CHINA Expected To Buy Embraer - Reuters
Noted earlier in Boeing news that the proposed takeover the Brazilian firm has fallen through
UBS have noted that China may be interested in buying up Embraer's commercial planes- "We believe China still aspires to a global aerospace leadership position and, in our view, (Embraer) would bring both the talent for design and development."

I wouldn't say that producing a new type aimed at the US commuter market which does not meet the US scope agreements so none of them will order it is the height of marketing acumen.

Could Brasil afford to finally give away what they have created over tens of years for billions? I think Embraer should cooperate with other guys, Japan, Korea and such. Maybe Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey.

The best bet for Airbus would be to swoop in and buy a bunch of the options out there...It would prevent a sale to COMAC.
As we have seen in the press, Boeing is reducing their workforce with early outs...they were doing this in anticipation of moving Engineering offshore...consolidating 787 production in SC, and shutting down the 747 line in Evertt, and moving the 737 Renton line to Everett (a much better location)
Now, what will they do for engineering, everyone with experience is gone....

Given that Horizon is a wholly owned subsidiary of Alaska Air Group, I think it would be accurate to say that a Horizon E-175 can be considered to be owned by Alaska.

This is a distinction that may become very important in the comming months as 'United" retire their CR 200's for example...
