im surprised the rules havent been leaked--- they've been finalized and im pretty sure the airlines know what the new rules are-- as prob does alpa national.
we can expect exactly what the article says.
prob a 6 leg limit at the regionals
up to 10 hours of flying to allow transcon round trips during normal circadian rythm hours.
and less during red eye hours

i havent a clue whats going to happen with commuters- if anything.

Exactly. UAL can do the same with many IAD flights. When ALPA suggested the 9 hour flight time/day I knew it had turned into a regional union.
