I doubt United is going to cancel the 25 Ejets that are coming.

As I understand what the United pilots are asking, they want management to allow the 175 CPA’s to just expire and bringing that flying to mainline pilots. All the existing 175’s would have to be updated anyway to put in more seats the union proposes. And, United would probably want to replace them with E2 models anyway. That means anyone who owns the 170/175’s will have to find a new major to fly their aircraft for.
So, there wouldn’t be any double dipping.

Not sure if you guys have seen the 3 part series on scope put out by the UAL MEC.
This one pretty much sums it up:

They’ll hire the person they want and train to fly whatever plane their heart desires.
No easy street and mainline is going to make sure it stays that way. It’s too much of a gamble.
Ever since being downgraded to the right-hand seat, I’ve newfound respect for the interview process and what it means- to making a company a good place to work, and the product they sell.

I also suspect there will be an Aspen carve out for the CRJ700’s with SkyWest in the United TA until Airbus can get their new aircraft qualified for Aspen.
