This is copy and pasted from the Q and A with Selvaggio:
"Q. After these changes, what will our fleet look like?
A. When the anticipated fleet changes are complete, Comair’s complement of aircraft is expected to be as
follows:
13 CRJ-900s (The 14th CRJ-900 will be delivered in the first part of 2009)
15 CRJ-700s
86 CRJ 100 and 200s
114 total aircraft (by the end of 2008)
Keep in mind that these numbers are an estimate, as the specific number of aircraft in our fleet can
fluctuate based on market demand, scheduling decisions made by our mainline partner and many other
factors."
I thought I heard somewhere that we need to staff about 6 crews per aircraft... not sure if it is correct or not... (6*2*114=1368 pilots)
