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.
no doubt they would DEFINITELY want to park 50 seaters before 175s n 900s.... if it were not for one little word. SCOPE. The mainline guys are not budging on it. 50 seaters will be around a while longer. Unless you are making a career out of regionals... 50 seater or 175 should not matter. Get in and out as quick as possible... unless you are waiting for the flow. Oh wait... what flow?
