Default E-175 deferrals

Anyone concerned about another delay in the acceptance of E-175's?

"The company recently deferred six Embraer E175 deliveries from the 2018-2019 period to after 2020. Partially offsetting these deferrals, Alaska will extend the lives of three Q400 turboprops that it had planned to retire in 2019. The net result is that Alaska's regional fleet is now set to shrink from 95 aircraft at the end of 2018 to 92 aircraft by the end of 2019."

I thought that AK/QX was healthy and growing. (AK stopped approx 300 pilots short of their 2018 hiring goals). WTH...
