I would not put much stock into Management and the union saying they want to bring back 200's in the 3Q. Just remember the 3Q follows the summer flying season and they still need to pad a bunch of new hires to fill the void of about 120 pilots that contractually get to go to Delta by the end of the year. To me its just more propaganda for the recruiters to use to sell this place to potential new hires. Also they want to make sure they keep pilots around through the summer flying season. I think somebody over at the C-tower is skittish about pilots bailing after getting the first bonus pay out in May. Why not tell the pilots 200's are coming back in the fall to keep those here who are on the fence.

Don't get me wrong there is going to be movement at Endeavor with the pilots going to Delta. I just can't see them hiring enough to cover that and bring back 200's. Better hire more then 20 a month if thats the plan and should've started doing it last year.
