But from a profitability standpoint, they will definitely lose money if they slowly dwindle the fleet...the overhead will kill them with only a handful of planes, I don't know how many but I'd guess somewhere between 20-30 is the cutoff.

My guess is fairly rapid shutdown, sooner not later. Good chance there will be no new-hires for 3-5 months while the training dept processes the bro-drivers.
