I do know that the non-WOs will slowly have their Eagle branded flying reduced and that flying will shift to the WOs. I think TSA's 145 flying will end up at Piedmont and eventually Republic's 175 flying at Envoy and perhaps some of Mesa's 900s at PSA.
If you call opening a new base that was once closed and hiring approximately 70ish pilots per month and offering $22,000 signing bonuses along with retention bonuses; not to mention flowing 30ish per month to AA and a decreasing upgrade time, being "wound down" I guess you're right...hahaha
I'm not saying all is great at Envoy but your definition and the worlds definition of "wound down" seems to be drastically different.
