In a word, yes, the Freedom ERJ guys are on 24 hour call-out, getting minimum guarantee.
When Delta lost the injunction, they had to resume paying us.
At first, the ERJ guys were sitting around, not flying and getting paid. Now the flying is slowly coming back up, as Delta didn't see it fit to pay us for doing nothing.
So, yes, if Delta wins the appeal (which they likely will) we will lose that money, since we will lose the contract entirely.
