I asked questions and got answers... and you're wrong about who is qualified on the airbus, anyways. The hint at plan B planes was smoke and mirrors, and you apparently fell for it. All the 717s would have come, regardless. There is no way financially that it wouldn't have happened- use your noggin and drop the sales pitch.
And sailing- you are correct, I should have said overhauls and not re-engining.
And who would have operated all these 50 seaters we were lead to believe would be around in plan B? I'm sure our industry top analysts in Herndon forcast the staffing issues regionals are facing today. Or, didn't they? Fair question.'
