Anyway, what's the fleet plan for 2017? The chief pilots used to get the next years plan in late November. We have decreased mainline and increased rjs for two years now, but we may be close to the scope limit for large rjs.

He may be dramatic but he serves a good purpose. His message needs to get out to most of the LAA guys who seem to have no clue that we are so far behind simply because they've never had any work rules. Most of the new hires (besides the flows) are clueless too.
Let me sum up contract 2020 in a nutshell. DL/UA+3% with no fixes to reserve, work rules or profit sharing. Maybe maybe maybe a token average calendar day fix but highly unlikely. You heard it here first.

Rumor is that some large RJ's will have seats removed below scope level to afford for more large rj's and a draw down of the 140/145's and 200's.

Doesn't look like any equipment is moving around just yet. Former LUS 76T pilots are getting flat-panel qualified, so the T designation will go away. DFW and LAX are slated to grow on the Airbus, due to the reduction in manning in PHX. That extra flying will flow to those bases. They said it'd be about a year before equipment starts to shuffle.
