I highly doubt they will do anything other than just add the flowbacks to the list and be captain heavy on the 900 or 200. The main reason is because the bottom 10-15 captains on the 900 and 200 were FO's. Displacing them back to saab CA is going to be expensive and even more expensive if the street captains get displaced and choose to be jet FO's.
