Seriously. We need them. If we don't have a fleet of turboprops at Eagle, then those jobs will certainly be outsourced because AA needs feed from airports that can only be serviced by turboprops. I think one reason why a certain ATR fleet is "getting old" is because money isn't being spent to refurbish them to last another 5 years. Why do that when the plan is to replace them soon anyway?
