Is that how yall felt about your "RJ" 737-200/300's? The DC9s will be DAL aircraft soon and until we realize that its not ok to just park those and allow mgmt to get around our scope language the downward slide in our industry will continue. You seem to forget we have scope language to protect our -9s or the jobs they include. IF they are ALL parked its because DALs scope allowed it not NWA. The DC9 has a specific mission and it does a good job in it. The 34ish -50s will be sticking around for a while and i am sure the -40s will also. The -30s are a toss up, they are the 100 seaters that DAL says they need. I think they will be around until replacements can be found. we shall see. Either way there is going to be a big shuffle in aircraft and bases. We are on the same team so there is no reason to fight between groups.
