Many Shuttle flights already outsourced to Republic E175's.

If the crew domicile survives the move -- i.e., renting new office space in B1, moving all the domicile infrastructure from B2 to B1, etc. -- then I think the base will be safe.

Rumored timeline is mid-2017 to mid-2018, but again, unsubstantiated.
Are the LUS crew spaces/offices still there from when it was a domicile? If so, it shouldn't be that hard.

EMB, I honestly don't know.

I mean, I assume the space is still there; I just don't know if or how it's occupied these days.

The next time I pass through, I will inquire.

Five additional positions in BOS in the last two years. No change.

They old us crew room and offices are located between the shuttle gates and regular destination gates below the food court in terminal B. Where air wiss and penn air park today by gate 5.

Most of the space(s) were taken over by ground ops from what I last saw several years back.
