We have at least 190 fifty seaters flying for the next 7 years which is great but we still need to think long term!

To fly for whom? I think XJT missed the boat on that. Other regionals jumped on the larger RJ market when it was still new and have established themselves by now, while XJT was tied to 50-seaters and CAL exclusively. Opportunity lost.
