gotta have somewhere to put the 50's that will have to move out of ATL to make room for the 900's coming very, VERY soon. Tell me you knew this was coing....you did right?
 
DFW, Duuuuuh!
 
Umm...I think they are just referring to the stat's of all the other cities other than ATL & CVG. Nothing to see here moving on.
 
Who cares anyway?
Y'all know for how long ASA's new hubs usually stay opened...
Plus, I don't know where XXX is, but I don't want to move there! :)
I like the dirty south!

Many of your 50s will probably be parked. Delta got rid of 50 in BK, and plans to do the same soon with more, from Comair obviously. There will not be a one for one trade with CR9s. Nope. This all from a Delta upper management guy. Yes, there will be some CR9s for Pinnacle, ASA, and Freedom, but more 50s will leave than 900s entering the fleets.

for once you're right. It won't be a 1 for 1 trade with 50/900. The growth for ASA will be the new 100 seat planes (no details on what it will be as of yet) along with the 900's.

Can't find enough pilots and the airports/sky are too crowded already (if you choose to believe the feds). So, the alternative is to move the same number of pax (or more) with the same number of crews already available (or fewer)....answer....planes with more seats.

Mainline will fly anything with more than 100 seats and "connection" will fly anything with fewer than 100 seats.....of course northing official has been announced, but remember you heard it here first.

That will be one hell of a trick since DAL scope prohibits you from flying anything with more than 76 seats.
 
PCL,

It will be an easy trick. DL pilots cave on scope everytime its presented to them. Anderson will sell it no problem.

Ohplease I'm with you.

Xxx

My guess is the San Fernando Valley, ala Burbank. The porn capital of the world. Think about it. Uncle Rico and his mustache, and now this. It's all adding up.

DAL was in bankruptcy when they gave up scope the last time, and even then they only gave up 6 seats for a handful of airplanes. Anderson doesn't have the bankruptcy hammer over their heads now, so I doubt you'll see any more scope concessions for quite some time. Besides, I don't think Anderson wants to outsource 100-seat aircraft. The bigger the RJ gets, the less they're saving by outsourcing them.

first it was 50's; then the number of 50's; then it was 70's; then the number of 70's; then 76 seats; then the number of 76 seats....

Delta was only in BK once during those times. The mgmt at Delta will ALWAYS find something to hold over their pilots to trade off scope. The Delta pilots have NEVER cared about ANYONE but themselves (and only then as individuals, not as a group). Any time those guy's have been presented with the chance to trade off something to keep their job/pay/etc., they've punked out.

Even the venerable (even if he does say so himself) General Lee.

The one thing mainline pilots have going for them now is the number of ASA pilots that have been hired lately. At least we know the ASA guy's won't punk out when faced with a challenge.
