Oh.. we gave up 33% of ours to "fund" meager pay rate increases while the company saves gobs of money through parking 50 seat RJ's which are going away anyways.
Why do people keep saying the 50 seaters are going away anyway? Lots of those airplanes still have years left on their contracts with the DCI carrier, is delta going to just park the airframe and pay, pinnacle, xjet etc.. there block hour rate for kicks? There are some airframes that have short term leases that run out pretty soon but definitley not the bulk of the fleet.
