11 pilots per aircraft. If they don't park 5 of the 50s.

There will be no rerun. The contract was CANCELLED. So, J.O. is out of luck this time, and when he ( mesa) has to buy back 77 million dollars worth of stock on FEB 10th, he might be out of business.

Doubt they will go anywhere but Comair. Delta wants those airframes to continue serving in the NE, so Comair is the obvious choice, plus Comair is staffed to take them in a hurry.

...it's hard to not get false hopes with all this news. Granted I'm pretty deep in the pool and probably won't be coming up any time soon. This would definitely help out the potential furloughees, however.

No, that would not be my word of choice for what Delta tried to do before. The 900 contract is NULL and VOID because Mesa did not meet the requirements of the contract, so it is no longer a legal document. Use whatever word spells it out best for you.

Delta just tried to take flying away from Mesa before.

i dont know where you are getting this from but its not correct. Delta practically cut and pasted the "not meeting contractual performance..." bit from the previous press release. Both the ERJ and 900 flying were "contract cancelled" in the press release. Expect this to go to court. It is no different then the 50 seat flying.

I guess Delta figures if they are going to spend a bunch of money on a legal battle with Mesa, they might as well go for the whole enchilada! We will see if Bornhorst can deliver.
