I have a feeling dueling will be frowned upon, even in the mighty 900.

I have felt that the 200s could be used as place holders with which to exchange for other airframes at later dates. Maybe that is what happened in this case.

So basically are New York 200 guys gonna either be displaced to Detroit or msp or atl or just re trained on a 900 if they close up shop now for them as quickly as they said it was gonna grow?

Why would you assume that? Isn't MSP still the biggest 900 CA base, even though it has the least amount of flying? They'll just flow them thru other bases via flying or deadheads...

Been through this before in 2013 when they pulled 200s out of ny the first time. So through a vacancy notice, we can bid out of NY but if your desired domicile is not an option, I think we can displace/realign ourselves to the desired base.

Where did this ny 200 base closure info come from? I hadn't heard
about this before.

We are being speculative based on what we see on deltanet.

west coast

I am not one to spread rumors, but I heard from two different people at 9E that the company was also looking at a West Coast base. Separately from this, I heard from a friend who interviewed at Compass recently that Delta is taking away all their E170s.

Anyone care to comment? I have heard no speculation on this in APC thus far.

Yes, Compass is losing all of their 170's, all 6 of them. Delta is moving them to Republic. Compass flies 36 175's for Delta, they're going no where.

Apparently Skywest is having no such problem nor indicated they would, and so west coast was wiped clean off the agenda table. Wasn't seen on here due to the quickness of the ordeal.
