That's odd, Tommy, because Delta isn't the only airline who refers to them as "ERs" - BA does the exact same thing. The "ER" designation has nothing to do with winglets. The ex-TW/AA planes that they're taking up have a higher MTOW, slightly different cockpits, and longer range than the -232s - enough to warrant a different designation within the system and in maintenance/flight training. But I suppose all the experts at BA and DL are misinformed, eh? :idea:
