We are significantly better now. The outlook is better than what you think, it just sounds more dramatic and scary to be pesimistic than the not. The world isn't ending. Yet.
Spirit was the worst of the worst in 2008. Now it's the best of the worst. How's that for optimism?

Does anyone know what DFW was before? I have a feeling that DFW didn't shrink, but LAX grew bigger than DFW with all the new flying out of LAX to everywhere. Maybe Just another case of not enough research from the reporter. Plus, the company still says they will cancel routes and put planes in more profitable routes when they see them.

Frustrating that my old regional was better at payroll than NK.

Actually, the 200 pilot airline was far better run than the 1300 pilot airline.

We filled out a pay sheet and faxed it to Barb at the hangar. She reviewed it and they paid us. It's the regional mindset management we have now that can't figure out how to utilize us as an asset.
