Not agreeing or disagreeing with the article but you should be forewarned that what you read on SeekingAlpha is rarely the opinion of a professional trader. Especially given that this "article" is written by... a pilot(look at his profile) and he has only ever written two other "articles"... and nothing that has ever been published in a real financial sector publication

All anyone talks about is the $49M ExpressJet lost last year, no one wants to mention that SkyWest made $140M. That's still a $91M profit for 2013.

The only people who matter are the shareholders, no one else!
