ALPA proves to be completely useless, yet again.

So are those six aircraft being reinstated to Republic? I see the article references 47 vs 53 aircraft. Are those six aircraft just up for grabs by anyone? I know, lots of questions.

They won't be able to staff them anyway. Just like F9, this will blow up in BB's face.

The other 6 aircraft were Air Canada birds that Air Canada couldnt get ready in a good enough time frame for AMR. Those planes are from what I understand, off the table. Here's my flamebait prediction since RAH is buying them without help from a major....Chpt 11 within two years of getting a new contract (if that ever happens)...then whipsaw concessions...rinse...repeat!

Well I guess Republic better get their butts in gear if they plan on even having a chance to staff half of the aircraft coming in.

You do realize we own a large portion of our aircraft already unlike most other regionals.

Hence why CH11 is a Limey scenario to grab a contract and help clean the balance sheet.
