And JetBlue announced order for 60 today. It was between this one and the E2, which now goes partially under the Boeing wing.

How does this 2-3 seating work, doesn't it have to be somewhat balanced?

Your right. For some reason this just looks a little off.

What if someone flew one before today, does he get to list both aircraft in the Aircraft List thread?

MD-80, MD-90, 717 all have 2-3 seating and have been flying fine.

Airbus swallows Bombardier, Boeing swallows Embraer... all that's left is Fokker.

No antitrust concerns?

Airbus A220 engines received 180-minute ETOPS certification.
