Dunno 'bout the future of the B717 based on comments coming out of AMR to the effect that they like their F100s and feel they have plenty of life left in 'em. Okay.. how many of the 30 TW 717s will Midwest Express take? 30 is a big number. And if they buy/lease 'em used, how much longer can Boeing keep Long Beach open producing a whopping 1.5 B717s a month? RT Simpson Phoenix
