Anything can happen. Another terrorist attack can happen which shuts air travel down like in 2001, the retirement age can be increased to 70, and the ATP minimums could be lowered to 250 hours again. These would all completely change the game. It is impossible to play "what if" for every scenario. The intelligent thing to do is figure out the motivation for each move and then use that as your guide. AAG wants CRJ's at one company and Embraers at another company because it makes financial sense. Period.
