In looking at the MSP categories, I see that the new M88 category is projected to have 94 A lines, but they only have 65 A's that will be projected to be in base by then. Are they really going to have 29 lines worth of open time when all is said and done? Or, are they going to reassign it to different airplanes (Like maybe to the 85 DC-9 captains who will be on reserve.)

BTW, I got curious and looked at the entire airline and it looks like, except for the DC-9, most category's are short for May. For instance, if I'm reading it right, NYC M88A will have only 8 reserves for approximately 73 blockholder's. I mean rolling thunder can't possibly cover that and the shortage in MSP, right? What gives?
