In that case, boy I'm glad we didn't do anything about AE/AMR flying in LAX, RAH flying with Frontier, TSA buying Mitsubishi jets, and now as we all think could eventually happen, Skywest will jump into that same holdings style flying. Maybe, maybe not.

chances of getting language in C2012 ending all of this outsourcing to fund competitors is as unlikely as saying end all outsourcing. We'll see how far this goes but if we fight this like we should I don't see any contract being signed within the next few years.
