Default Delta's 76 Seat Pay

Haven't you guys negotiated payrates for the CRJ-900? If the company wants to get out of bad lease agreements for the crj-200 and can only do so by getting more 76 seaters then why not just tell management to go ahead and buy them since you've already agreed to payrates for them not once but at least twice now. Why have them unless you are just using them as a pacifier of hope. Sounds like you guys already have a hard cap at 255 for the 76 seaters. If you think you could have a hard cap at 450 (new # I think) if this passes, ask yourself this question. Did you think you had a hard cap at 255 (70/76 seaters) when the last contract was being presented to you? Hard Caps on anything are only hard if you enforce it.
