Well if the top 3 regionals say they would pick it all up then that is an increase of 30% and it doesn't have to be overnight. Spread it out over 3 years and that is less than 10% growth per year.

and the 1000 pilots per 30% will come from which flight school?
and why would aa give that much control to 3 feeders which is if you believe aa management there purpose to diversify to 4/5 feeders to keep costs down? You might as well keep the majority of flying with the owned feeders. When the contracts start to be coming up for renewal at the non owned feeders then the story will be known. The RAH 12 year deal was for RAH to finance the aircraft using the 12 year feed contract as collateral.
but stanger things in this industry have happened.

One thing to keep in mind is that all of Eagle's capacity doesn't need to be replaced. Over at DCI Delta is reducing the overall size of the regional fleet and replacing it with larger RJs.
AA could do the same thing, but reward large RJs to other carriers while parking a larger number of Eagle ERJs

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how does Parker get out of the aircraft leases? Can he use the bankrupcy to do that? And when they exit bankryptcy, dont those leases stay in place? I think their is alot of paranoia around here about nothing. AA cant lose the feed eagle provides, if even they really want to, which we dont know.
