They may even try to invoke Force Majure again! In any case those ERJ guys are likely going to get screwed for a long time if this plays out as I am sure it will!
net loss is 21 airplanes we already were losing 8 ERJs and we still are taking 7 more 900's by the end of the year. as others have already stated about understaffing the company isnt going to let anyone go, they need them all to fly the CRJ. Yes the Street captain thing is probally not going to happen now, but it could happen sooner then later with all these 300hr guys that came on line last year.
So i get to either displace to the CRJ in JFK or get the F out of New york i cant really complain about that. The sky isnt falling as some hope. Who knows JO could get the Boot.
