I explained why it was a separate issue relative to what was being discussed but you chopped it. I was referring to the false arguement that if there is a wholly owned subsidiary flying permitted types that means we must allow non wholly owned subsidiaries to fly whatever they want as long as its on another certificate. That interpretation, DCI/PID/RJDC issues aside, is asinine.
And your MEC made its bed with your DOH (or anything greater than a staple, even one with certain protections) dreamshot and you have been riding high on the post 9-11 small jet outsourcing heyday, which is rapidly coming to a close. Regionals are going bankrupt, sending planes to the boneyards and losing flying now. You may be at a powerhouse today, but so was Comair not that long ago. Your chickens (arrogant MEC's and massive tactical miscalculations and overestimations) too will come home to roost.
