The 787 orders from CAL, 25 I believe, are yours and most of the 737 on the books may be yours if the TPA expires. Why most? because the orders weren't firmed with financing until this year and your block hour guarantees are probably going to be exceeded soon.

Yes there will be a grievance and that is why JP agreed to the TPA extension because it eliminates and provides language about who gets what airplanes until replacements begin. When the TPA dies much of those guarantees die with them. and the issue will be maintaining the RJs!!!
