NOT ME!! If and when I apply to Envoy and offered the 145 I'd bail or wait until the 175 or CRJ was available.
This is short sighted. If that happens, there will be furloughs, and that will start from the bottom of the list. It won't matter what equipment you are on. The senior 50 seat guys will just move to the 175.
