Interesting clip.

Anderson says no layoffs due to merger happening but doens't say no to layoffs due to fuel prices/economy.

He definitely would be a good politician. You won't catch him in a lie.

I think there is no way to avoid a furlough if 20 Dc-9s get parked in the fall. One good thing is they are still cheaper to run per seat than any 50 seat RJ

They are all have placards installed,

"Don't laugh it's paid for".

REgarding the DC-9s being parked...

Honestly not sure how many u have but I am hearing rumblings about the 9s replacing the MD-88s on the Delta Shuttle once the merger is completed.

Helos;

I have not heard anything like that. The 9s do get

parked often however. Since they are paid for

they do get parked, for short periods off and on.

They are actually a lot cheaper to operate than the 88. And that is cost per seat mile not total cost. Even with a 80K lease note on the 88.
Now if oil goes a little higher that may change, but for now it has its place in the fleet. On top of it, I am guessing that they will try some differences training with the 9, 88, and 90. Not sure if it will pass muster, but I bet they try. After all it is the same type rating.
