ETR for 193 was showing 2300 on the 22nd. So in theory should be on a route for the morning.

How do they do these arrivals. Obviously its not non-stop as the 321 can barely make it from PHL to LAX without a refuel.
Do they cram fuel bladders into the baggage holds?
I assume that since these planes are probably not ETOPS capable, they have to fly tracks that keep them in proximity to land?

Actually the two tanks are in the aft bag bin. Just aft of center wing. A real nice mod. Also rated for EOW with slide/rafts. The CFM's went to a single fuel manifold with the flame path controlled buy all the nozzles and an up graded turbine. More thrust less fuel burn. Upgraded stearing and brake system. Up graded air conditioning. Up graded IDG (CSD/GEN) and PSEs. Touch screen for the F/As Fwd galley. Basicly mechanical valves traded for digital electronics. CRT's traded out for LCDs. Incandescent bulbs traded for LED. We will get one bus a month except for October. 3 with CFM's. The rest with IAE's. No mix and match on the engines. Could lead to a parts problem.

The pictures from the front make the engines look like they are supposed to be on the E-170's.
