My theory remains they are parking crews on the MD88 and staffing most everything else for a capacity reduction. The 767 and ER are one part seasonal and one part a reluctance to close the domestic category in ATL.
We will see on this next bid. Another big purge to the MD88 right seat will be getting the ducks lined up in seniority order. Watch the ratio of MD88 FO's to Captains.
