That's a great example 80 of playing checkers while someone else plays chess. I think if Bar's analysis of scope is right, as in little jets were just flat out unwanted as were b-scales and scope was bargained away is another great great example of checkers while someone was playing chess.

The other is thinking outsourcing all over the place is a good thing, like that flight attendant at MIT. Dude is telling airlines to play checkers while the real world plays chess. Airlines that follow suit are thinking if they move their pawn out and immediately put their queen in striking distance that they'll be in a great position to win. In reality, they're going to lose their queen - their product - and they will flounder around as what was once a nothing pawns move in on their king.

Talk about not seeing more than one step ahead. This Holdings scheme (RAH and now Skywest and TSA) seems like a modern day version of the CRJ-100 introduction. Overlooked but one day we'll pay the price.
