Here's the solution to your staffing issue
. Send Eagles 47 CRJ700 to PSA remove the 35 CRJ200 from PSA fleet no negotiation needed since they fly them for free under a blended rate
. Place the 60 E175 on Eagle certificate with negotiated new rates and contract improvements. Place PDT pilot group on Eagle/PSA list to help staff their fleet. As the E175 come in remove the Dash from the system. By 2016/17 no more CRJ 200 for PSA and no more Dash 8 no more Piedmont.

Also our 200s are very new, and make money due to "favorable" lease terms. So outright parking them wouldn't make too much sense. Stranger things have happened though. Perhaps shifting them somewhere else. Or leaving them here and placing eagle's crjs at piedmont and 170s at eagle.
Pure conjecture of course I'm sure we will find out soon what the plan is.

I doubt you'll see the reduction in 50 seaters come from PSA...more likely Air Wis and since they already said so, Envoy.
What do we think is gonna happen at our meeting with AAG next week?

All regionals are bad, I'm not saying eagle is a great place to work or that PSA is necessarily bad. What I am saying is at least argue with facts.
