The US Airways and America West collective bargaining agreements will be
modified to allow for a combined maximum of ninety-three (93) CRJ-900, or
other aircraft within the seating and maximum take-off weight limits specified in
Paragraph B above, to be operated in revenue service at any given time at Express
Carriers except that for every two (2) aircraft in excess of the combined 360
aircraft (excluding EMB 190 aircraft) operated at both US Airways and America
West, that are added to revenue service in the mainline fleet, the Company may
allow three (3) additional CRJ-900, or other aircraft within the seating and
maximum take-off weight limits specified in paragraph B above, to be operated in
revenue service at Express Carriers.
1. US Airways were allowed to go over 93 RJ's if the mainline went over 360 which it did for a while, so their's the excuse. "We reducing the fleet so it will take awhile to reduce the RJ's"
2. "to be operated in revenue service" means "hey we're not over the scope by 18 rj's, there just spares!"
They always have so BS, just wait for it.
