Alright I got off my a$$ and found the info.
There was an announcement in Jan for a rj cut of 35 jets. Then in March it was a cut of 15-20 mainline and another 25 rjs. The latest announcement amends the March announcement by adding 45 rjs to the potential cut list. Now whether that's a 10 rj cut increase (70-[35+25]=10) or a 45 rj cut increase (70-25=45) I don't know. The former I suspect. It appears however there was no mainline cut increase.
