Too Funny, Shell games, liability, debt, assets, a bunch of young Trumps we have here, why are you all pilots? (I know, some come from money) Those jets are coming because of the future scope concessions from mainline, period. With what I have seen, I have no reason to doubt it. Sorry.

Just ask a DAL 737-800 pilot.

Its no longer an LOI it is a firm 50 orders with 50 more options. I still dont think they will ever take delivery. They will most likely sell the slots off when the time comes. 2014 is pretty optimistic for a plane that has not even come off the design board. (ask boeing)

Who's ignoring history? I conclude that enough of us have learned and gotten hosed by scope sales in the past to never sell scope again.
You think that something that has happened in the past will simply repeat itself without looking at the big picture.

Problem is that if the mainline willfully sells 100 seat flying, these same pilot will knowingly be selling their own jobs. Not sure if I see that happening. Not even for money. Everyone that I have talked to understands that after the last decade of stagnation.
