I do believe that has already been mentioned a lot in other threads.

He did however bring up the fact that something might be coming in the future. He doesn't know what, but he told me that if XJ was going to furlough they probably would have started by now. He's had that feeling from a lot of captains that he has flown with about something must be up. He also told me that NWA has the ability, or might have the ability on adding 20 to 30 900's in the future. Can anyone agree or disagree with that? Not really sure if NWA is held to the same restriction that DAL is to the 70 seaters.
