Yes...and crewed by rather expensive APA guys instead of cheaper Eagle crews.

The ONLY way for companies to move forward is to cut costs, and the expensive crews will have to go, like it or not, and certainly most will not.

The high cost of "beaks above the ground effect" pilots have finally come home to roost at many US carriers. They will just have to pull in their collective belts and accept the inevitable, otherwise, no jobs at all...period.

Tough beans.
