SkyWest is only losing 12-15 captains a month. The above assumptions are off a little. -- Most of the attrition is off the bottom of the list - newer FOs.

They'll be about 20 upgrades in February. All of them on the CRJ for MSP. Junior one I'm guessing will be a 2/2012 doh. Not that that matters at all. Upgrade times for those upgrading now have absolutely nothing to do with when someone getting hired now will upgrade. Absolutely nothing.

Some of the CRJ 700s coming off lease with United may not find a new home and be parked. And I think that's the companies plan. There's some very expensive maintenance that needs to be done and it may not be financially viable to do it.
