Wow, this is an interesting analysis. I did not realise how long the E195-E2 actually is compared to mainline planes until I saw this video! If I ran an airline operating E195-E2s, I would be putting them in my mainline operations.
Yeah it is not really a regional jet, but because of the layout is classified as one. In reality its capability, capacity, and range make it fit the small mainline aircraft market. Unfortunately, most airlines are sleeping on it.
@@CitrusAviation I see. I think the E2 is a sleeper, also could say the same thing for the A330neo as well. They’re fantastic planes that many airlines are passing up.
@@justinsimmonds5674 Airlines aren’t really passing up on the A330Neo. The issue is most A330 are still new enough to where replacements aren’t required yet.
At first I wasn’t sure. But I’m very happy I just purchased one along with this year’s Delta Connection CRJ-900. Porter kinda works because JetBlue is partnered with them. An eBay seller does have a Porter Dash 8 400. But don’t get it (as some advice). My wallet couldn’t handle it. Not a lot of wallets can handle it. This E2 version of the E195 is so cool, I imagined if JetBlue would fain interest in purchasing these as well to replace there E190s and there older A320s. But JetBlue went for the A220-300 instead. Don’t get me wrong, the A220-300 is cool. And much larger than the E190 series. But the runway at the Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket airports aren’t long enough to accommodate A220-300s. Unless they slightly expand them. I mean JetBlue sends A220-300s to Key West from Boston. Let’s just see in the future if the runway’s at the Vineyard and Nantucket can accommodate A220-300s. Gemini gets an A+ for the E195-E2 1:400 casting. What’s your grade?
Yeah this model is awesome!! The A220 has better runway performance than the E195 E2 and fits better with JetBlue’s vision of an all Airbus fleet. I gave this model a 99/100 so that would grade out as an A+.
