OO will park another 11-12 CRJ 200s for delta this fall, I personally think management has a plan for them... the 100 planes that come off for United are not being parked, they are just coming off contract (there is an opportunity to renew these contracts), so this is what management has been saying is we need to be competitive to keep the flying we have with United, and the 175s will be growth, if we don't renew flying with United with the CRJs then 175s will be replacement, and United doesn't hate the 200 like delta does, there is potential to keep it around. SkyWest is also really liking this pro rate thing, they will probably keep 200s just for that.
