From the endeavor air monthly news letter from our fearless leader:
With the recent announcement of our plan to continue removing 50‐seat
aircraft into 2015, Endeavor will begin transferring CRJ‐200 aircraft to other Delta
Connection carriers that possess the capability to fly them. We expect to transfer
two aircraft within the next 30 days and will transfer other shells in the future if
needed. Exactly what carrier will be in a position to fly 50 seat aircraft and how
many they will fly is yet to be fully determined. We will work with Delta as they
find carriers that can provide the service that Delta needs on the 50‐seat product as
we draw down this operation.
Thoughts? Sounds like this Endeavor experiment is failing. Who thought this was a good idea?

MY favorite layover in the domestic system! Great hotel, awesome beds, love parking the jet and walking into a 4 star hotel.

I do a lot of long haul driving in my pickup truck, 10 hour legs, plus stops, with a 3 horse trailer behind it, and you are correct, it is very fatiguing! I HATE the nitwits out there zig sagging through traffic, and tying to get past the Winnibego's, etc.
BUT... I'm only 3 feet off the ground and only going 70mph, oh and I can pull over at any exit/rest area and grab another Red Bull!

Actually yes. We are splitting hairs on the subtle duty hours differences between truck driving and jet flying with hundreds of lives in the back and where the smallest EP can immediately demand your full alertness.
