I saw in section one where they get to run the 76 seaters up to 223 for 1.25 mainline narrow bodies, but didn't see anything about those 76 seaters being parked if we lose other narrow bodies. Like the 9s they'll park as soon as we get the 717s.


Thanks

Now we can debate whether the loss of G/S's is a good or bad thing, but if the flying is done with fewer pilots at a lower effective rate....
