Things will be interesting going forward. Endeavor can flourish with -200's waiting to be staffed, or torpedoed without applicants. All of that is outside any of our purview. 100 -200"s need to be staffed per DL network planning, but all the other carriers are not even participating in the RFP. That leaves Endeavor to do it, if the pilots exist.
In my opinion, Delta hasn't made up their mind yet how they want this all to play out. When/if they want to get pilots to come to Endeavor they will. Endeavor has more potential then any other regional in the game, Delta just has to decide to what they want to do with it. By this time next year Endeavor could be the regional to be at or it could be in the process of turning out the lights.
