2020 without this Ta
111 50 seaters
255 70+seaters
366 total RJs

So with this TA, DCI will actually be bigger!
These numbers are based on known lease numbers obtained from alpa rep.
Your assuming a lot with those numbers. The 50 seater is not dead. If the company puts the engine money into those aircraft there might extend those leases. My understanding is that 311 of the airframes are tied up until 2020. So overnight they are going to dump 200 airframes with no replacement. Not likely. Its far more likely that a lot of those aircraft would be replaced or released.
