The next 15 will either be from other bases or repatriated flying from TSA.

Did you know TSA has 14, they are due for return this fall at ç check and Parker already said he wants them back.

I didn't know what the trigger for returning them would be but that definitely makes sense

I thought those 14 hulls were used at LGA? That's why we are able to open LGA so quick. However, I believe we are still sending 145s to PDT so doesn't that make the 145 fleet size a wash?

That is completely insane. You have no idea what you are talking about.

All facts appear LGA is a replacement for all the awac crj200 flying out of LGA. TSA operates from Rdu and STL with the 145s from Eagle, they could operate those airplanes anywhere in the system as well. The c check comes late this year, I'd expect to see them goto envoy then. Similar to xjt.

It's my understanding aag has told envoy we will fly as much as we can staff, there's no lack of airplanes available.

We've even accepted flying we can't staff, as is evidenced by schedules and staffing the last few months. Which is why it is impossible to believe that envoy will turn down potential flying from AA just to avoid metering the flow.

Amigo, one day you say the flow is real. Another day, today, you say you will never see any better flow.

Like one day you cheer for the company. Another day you attack. What for? Find one side you like better and stay there.
