We had a schedule but it changed, which is why I don’t trust any communications. But more bad info is always fun for the social media entertainment value. BS knows more than us but the stuff he knew but didn’t apply to reality is what I want to know. Plans change like the weather around here.

yeah, having trained both on the fleet new hires generally show up more prepared than anyone else
we are only parking a few 76s, that has nothing to do with the fleet plan for new hires.
parking them in lieu of a few other airplanes...the gulf air birds are going to charters instead of being parked so it's still a net loss but doesnt sting as much.

Side bar regarding the 76T’s; those are the newest and most capable 767-300’s on property delivered around 1999-2001 timeframe. From what I understand, those frames will not be reconfigured in high density as planned, but they will replace a commensurate number of the older 76L’s from the early 1990’s and remain in the fleet. It’s a wash with regard to block hours and AE positions, but they have electric seats so I suppose it’s worth noting
