For me the real issue is places like Air North who cannot get people to fly their Metro aircraft so have them parked. That really costs money.

A couple of years ago it was not a big problem, however the new Brist-oh? regime have a unique (OK, not that unique in aviation) business model. Perversely, they believe that they are actually improving their cashflow by not paying the contracted captain in a timely fashion. The problem of parked Metros (and now the two grounded, engineless, E-jets) is self induced.
