The FAA has given zero indication they are going to shut down the entire national airspace system. They, or individual cities/states may decide to shut down travel to specific regions or areas, but as of now they have given no real indication that they will do that.
I do agree we should all be concerned. My point was just that in times like these, the legacies WILL have to park aircraft to comply with current scope clauses at some point if mainline aircraft stay parked and revenues don’t bounce back quickly. They will undoubtedly park older 50-seaters before they park new 175s and CRJ900s.
