CHQ is fully able to supply aircraft to cover the CALEx flying by summer 07, but it is likely that CAL has allowed a somewhat extended timetable in order to accomodate CHQ's US 145 aircraft reduction timetable. Remember, CHQ is only going to have 44 aircraft for CALEx, compared to the 69 aircraft reduction by XJT. The CRJ's (24 of them) will all be available, painted, and brought into servicable condition by summer 07. The 20 145's being taken from the US Airways side are of course on property and ready to go, but CHQ would like to change those over to blue and gold paint 1 for 1 as the new US 175's are delivered. The 30 175's will all be on property by summer of 08, however the 20th one should be delivered sometime in the first few months of 08; this should mean that all CHQ aircraft would be online with CALEx around Jan 1 '08. Of course, no matter how you do the math, the addition of 44 aircraft will never equal the reduction of 69 aircraft. Perhaps the 25 other aircraft will be reduced after CHQ aircraft are all online. But to all you naysayers, the CHQ program is on track, CRJ classes are running, manuals are approved, and the first CRJs have arrived.
