Quaile,
Don't believe the hype. I'm sure that after dealing with the Republic/Northwest merger for 20 years that our negotiatiors don't want to "staple" anyone to the bottom of the list.
Also, if you look at the merger analysis that was shared by the company, the DC-9's are very much a part of the plan.
