(However small it may or may not be.)
Has anyone asked J.S. about the status on that yet? What did he say, if anything? I know its' hard to remain positive, I saw my old base manger just getting off a trip on the 70, he had tears in his eyes, taking that last walk to furloughville, I will NEVER forget that. I did my best to cheer him up, but kinda hard when your eyes are getting moist too.
He said, during the last net conference, that Delta wasn't stopping us (yet), but the most limiting factor was United's scope clauses for 70 seat aircraft. There was nothing stopping 50 seat flying but they don't need 50 seaters. In short what I got was that they need 70s but they couldn't operate more 70s due to scope clauses.
BTW Diver, my ears are burning.
