NET GAIN= BIG FAT ZERO.

Management would Fu%k up a contract if all they had to do was sign the dotted line.

net gain=0 too funny, sounds like my flying career

I'll believe it when I'm in one of the "new" airplanes. Otherwise, I remain dubious.

With all them there Em-brah-airs parked in BNA, you'd think we could find some "new" airframes to add to our fleet.

I would bet they wouldn't be those...I've heard that those things have so many liens on the frames and the engines that they'll never fly again...but, again, that's from the rumor mill de BNA. You can sure pick out 851 and 852 down there though with the white noses parked right out front.

Ok...net gain of zero is a whole lot better than losing 10 more airplanes and potentially the whole airline. Sure, we'd all love a gain of 10 but I'd settle for zero gain. That being said, hopefully we get some decent pairs out of IAH. I could use a change of scenery.

Unless the management drastically changes how the operation is run, this place should go under.

If those FOs were gonna make the jump, they should have done it a month ago. Now they will just be on the bottom of the seniority list as they wait for the movement we are all patiently anticipating.
