Hobbies are things you do for free.

So no she probably doesn't.

Default 100 seat flying?

So, I recently flew with a guy who seemed to be pretty sure that part of our new TA involves an order for several 90-100 seat airplanes, which also meant the parking of more 50 seaters, and possibly some relief on the addition of 76 seaters.

Haven't seen anyone on here talk about that scenario much. I don't like the idea of more 76 seaters, but if we can get 100 seaters on property as growth, I think we'll come out ahead.

It should not be, as it is a number derived from a specific and objective formula. If it ever does appear to be manipulated, I would strongly recommend calling the MEC Scheduling Committee and letting them know.

But we already have a 100 seater.

88-90 replacements




And if they need relief on 76 seaters they can have some. In fact, how many 76 seaters do they need? They can have them. As many as they want.

As long as we fly them.

As long as there is iron clad language RE larger mainline A/C if we fly them. Otherwise we will see more downsizing. We all know how ironclad DALPA crafts the language RE scope/JV. I would be skeptical.
