When half the 717s arrive.. the mainline fleet will exceed 767. Management can then convert all the 70 seaters to 76s.. And they have absolutely no reason nor mechanism to get rid of the 50s... all 3 hundred and something of 'em...
Then... management can start parking mainline aircraft... with no corresponding reduction in RJs..
But you are right, the TA sucks. I'll only make $30 more than a UAL 747 captain.
