Hell, even with them parking one dash per month, where in that letter does it say we'll continue at the delivery rate of one jet per month?

What it does say, however, is that AA is "committing additional regional jets to Piedmont starting in 2017". It also says that the delivery schedule of the jets will be "aggressive". New bases were alluded to, and new routes were outright promised.

I get it, you guys are used to being screwed here at PDT. You guys also thought the company was going under a couple years ago. Here we are.

I don't know where this talk of stagnation or shrinkage even started, but it makes absolutely zero sense. maybe you've been at pdt for 20 years and haven't gotten a new type rating in just as many years, and your afraid of the jet. If you're that afraid of a new type maybe you should be scared for your job, rather than get all ****y about pdt moving on from the dash. If you thought we weren't gonna grow before this announcement then I get your stance, the market is tough for a company to grow right now. But please explain to me how this announcement is negative
