You got some proof they weren't coming?
Nobody said the 50 seaters were going to be reengined. We said that instead of having 125 they'd have 200-225 CRJ-200 after the 3 year period. We also said that there'd be fewer mainline airplanes without the deal and told you management had a plan B. We verified Plan B through the pilot director, aircraft manufacturers involved (competitors) and aircraft leasing companies.
Taking plan A we got about 60 extra mainline aircraft. Do the math on the Captain seats created.
Would management commit fraud and possible SEC violations over a pilot contract?
Really?
Don't make me drag Scambo's quote out again!
