Were any of these rjs Compass (or any other you guys might have a so-called "flowback" agreement with)? Is there anything in your contracts that prevents management from reducing Compass planes before other contractors? (ie: stopping them from getting rid of/reducing Compass and keeping or increasing another rj carrier)
Why are you so f'ing obsessed with airlines/companies you don't work for???
It's CRJ-200s that are being parked. I think the E-135s and 45s too.
No. 9918 made 47 flights in the first 10 days of July, 2008, to destinations from Grand Forks, N.D., to New York's LaGuardia. On July 10 at 7:21 a.m. it took off from Traverse City, Mich., and flew its last paying passengers to Minneapolis, according to FlightAware. By the end of that day it was parked at Marana.
Thanks...are those Compass (I have no idea who is flying what at their regionals)?
Alot of those positions are created by the increased utilization rate of the 9's that are left in service. Don't know the numbers for sure, but it was going from around 4 hours a day to over 7 hours a day for the 9s that are left on property.
To be more accurate, the DC9 daily utilization went from about 9 hours/day to higher numbers, somewhere around 10-11/hrs/day
In all fairness, we should mention the number of rjs being cut by the airlines, particularly everyone's favorite whipping post.
60 dc-9s parked, 200 rjs parked.
