As far as aircraft specific numbers, currently they are cycling aircraft in and out of short term storage. Aircraft A is parked for a week while Aircraft B flies. Then Aircraft B is parked and Aircraft A is flown. Week after that, Aircraft C is parked etc etc. As I understand, they are planning to put 8 - 10 EMB140s into Long Term Storage around the end of the year. The specific aircraft and their numbers, I am sure, will be decided at that time based on current block hours and staffing numbers.
I think this meme would be appropriate now:
Nice tap dance Bill. You could have just spared us this mindless (yet amusing) post and simply admitted you were blowing smoke up all our tailpipes claiming they have and will park aircraft to maintain the dribble-thru. Personally, I liked you better teeing up the petunia's.
