What is the exact language in the TA regarding how many CRJ200s leave? It seems people are quoting some different numbers.
We know the new mainline planes will be the 88 717's, so the addition of the 70 CRJ900s are a done deal (which exactly satisfies the 1.25 ratio). Exactly how many CRJ200s go away with these numbers?
Also, what is the current total DCI CRJ200 inventory per regional?
Just trying to see the odds of my job going away.

You guys do what you have to do with that TA but Delta has an out on a ton of 50 seaters if you don't ratify the TA. It's called the Pinnacle bankruptcy. wonder why they haven't mentioned any plans yet with Pinnacles 200 fleet thus far into the bankruptcy. They are waiting to see how your TA turns out.
If you do ratify the TA I'm guessing more 900's get dangled in front of Pinnacle pilots to get us to bite quickly on a crap concessionaire contract in bankruptcy to get shiny new airplanes to replace all those 200's (obviously more going away them being replaced) and save a few jobs more then would be lost with 200's going away without replacement aircraft. While that's going on Delta buys Pinnacle in bankruptcy for pennies on the dollar and gets the fleet set up the way they want it (kind of like flipping a house, fix up the kitchen and bathroom and sell for way more then you paid for it). So you pass the TA pinnacle loses a ton of 50 seaters and gets more 900's (value of Pinnacle sky rockets). Don't pass TA and Pinnacle still loses 200's and has current fleet of 900's which is still going to make Delta money if they bought them and sold them to say Skywest, but not as much as if you pass that TA. So in theory you guys passing TA is making the value of Pinnacle go up once all this happens. Delta buys Pinnacle and sells to the highest bidder. Money in the pocket of Delta management. Probably enough to cover the cost of your 3 year deal or new fleet of 717's which just replaced some of your 88's and older 319's.
I wish I was Delta management, they are going to be laughing all the way to the bank. Funny thing is it all seems to be scripted out way ahead of time and not much you can do to stop it.
The ASA side will probably lose a net 60-80a/c. Don't panic you say???? Just because it may have already been 'planned', doesnt mean its not distressing to see your company about to be gutted.
