Default First bird being transferred to express jet

Trans states is going to be the company replacing Envoy in NYC. Basically company is just taking crew out of plane and putting in TS crews so planes are staying in NYC. Also saw a trip in open time mqt-tys. (Tys is express jet maint base)They are gonna make us deliver the aircraft to express jet to give them away How's that for rubbing the salt in the wound. Also been rumblings of Parker turning E175 order(40 Envoy is allegedly getting) into E195s for mainline. He has publicly said 19 ac is not large enough to justify fleet type. So we'll need to get rid of them or order more. With group 1 pay so low with new AA contract he might have decided more is better. With no E175 delivery there is no trigger to increase flow rate any more. So now 76% voted yes for no planes, no increased flow, but pay caps, freezes and increased medical cost. And our union was too stupid to put a clause in there that said. If no E175 show by November 1. New agreement is thrown out and we go retro with pay increase back to jan 1 2015 or this many aircraft get transferred back
