and the last goal I heard was 70/month. Falling well short on that it appears.

So with 200s going to the desert, going down to one deuce sim, and now perhaps more 900s, is the plan to address future shortages going down to all 7/9? Replace the deuces with a dozen or perhaps more if they can get the OO 9s?

slightly over staffed. Scheduled reductions in the 200 fleet are “suppose” to start in 2027.

ATL 900 flying will shift more and more to the 717, 900 starts picking up 200 flying. It doesn't solve it, but it makes it easier to deal with.
