Jump to postCould this be viable in Northern Canada? Many of the operators fly aging 737-200C, and some 737 classic (Although the latter are in an all-passenger configuration). If Boeing could find a way to gravel kit the 737NG, I am sure that this would be a perfect replacement for the 732.

Jump to postOn the topic of the 787s, what if WS picked up some of those early-build 787s that Boeing has sitting around? They aren't as light as the later build models, but they would probably be cheaper, and definitely available faster.
