Bingo. Bye Bye to all Embraers and hello to 140 lightly used CRJ200s.

I've been hearing AMR flying rumors for a while now. Is there really any news about this or is it just an old rumor coming about again?

Which they can then keep a few for eagle and dual qual everyone then contract out the rest. Seems stupid though when there are a ton of MINT Embraers at Eagle...

the leases on the EMJs are complicated, and both AMR and the AE union have said this a few times. They are leased long term from the bank of Brazil who told them it was all or nothing on them. I would be amazed to see AMR entirely replaced them with CRJ200s or at least about the 200-250 50seat jets they need going forward. A few RJ airlines would have to hire 2000-3000 pilots while maintaining Eagle, and fully staffing Eagle in the transition. It just seems very complex and people are just making up what they want to benefit themselves as an outcome of these rumors. The only other option is AMR exchanges them 2 for 1 for 175s. I guess the entire dismantle of Eagle could happen as they give the 175s to RAH and keep the CRJ700s and whatever else they get for Eagle CRJ wise, bid out the 175s and bid out the entire 50 seat flying. Seems like a huge friggin gamble that it actually played out. Sounds more like hype and rumors. Also since nothing has happened with the AA pilot contract, I doubt anything is going to happen with feed airlines first, since AA contract stops it till those items are changed.
