"From my alpa days, I remember the thought process regarding getting newer, bigger planes on the fleet was that it was better to get the planes on the ramp first and then focus on negotiating better pay for them, rather than kill alot of time and risk not getting them at all."
Bigger yes. Newer no. One of the 757s which Jazz pilots will fly was originally purchased for Canada 3000 in 1988. It's still in service with Thomas Cook and will be one of the aircraft C-reg'd for a Canadian winter. Enjoy.
