No, I'm sure they'll be at the least two more. Where??? Don't know. Rumors of one being thrown out there is RDU.

Thanks, I think I would much rather be in RDU than PHL.

I'm sure we'll get more then 20 planes. Especially since we have to eventually cover AWAC flying in 2 years. But then again you're a Envoy pilot so your probably still bitter. It's okay we get it.

Yes. Just PHL. I dunno where you're getting your rumors from, billy! Right now all growth is forecasted to be PHL. Makes sense... PSA-CLT. PDT-PHL. ENY-ORD/DFW

Perhaps. It's pretty bad business to have one carrier operating exclusively in one hub. For example , say one company's Sabre release system goes down. You have the other to pick up the slack

You're right I forgot we'd only be operating 20 dash's and 20 erjs.

What was I thinking?

If you are going to take envoy aircraft to cover AWAC flying who will fill the void in the envoy flying? AWAC?

Envoy isn't getting planes??? Parker wants 3 wholly owns about the same size. AWAC is done with AAG in 2 years. They'll hopefully be a delta or united connection again.
