The flowthrough/back stays with compass and the airplanes so that wouldnt matter.

This must be part of the December 9th announcement pertaining to raising cash (Selling Compass) and exact capacity cuts.

I think most of the reductions will be RJs. I know last summer we were told that NWA mainline is a lean as it could get and we have lost over 200 pilots since then. We are also projected to lose more pilots with retirements and in fact they are talking of hiring again here at natco but we'll see. We are very fat on RJs and with many companies publically stating they'll do all they can to not book their employees on RJs I think RA is done with love of RJ era. Further, they just told pinnacle that their contract with NWA is null and void.

Public School version. We're not furloughing on either side guys. Relax, it'll be okay.

Exactly what I have been told time and again.
Lets just hope these are the last cuts.

Yeah, haven't heard Pinnacle getting the door at all. Where did you hear that?

I believe Pinnacle was giving one or two 900s to someone else but that was it as far as I knew.

I got it off of our webboard. I think the guaranteed 9% profit for fly has been nullified. We'll see what happens. I think we're RJed out.
