What I was trying to say is that the SWA guys are our equals in terms of the qualifications they bring to the job...ergo, we should use their 737 rates as a starting point for ours. Not that they are more or less qualified. I agree completely that SWA 73 = DAL MD-88/90 and we go from there. That was my poorly articulated point.
No one is managing my expectations. I have realistic yet "restorative" ones.
