At one time, the DFW Pilot base was nearly as big as ATL, about 2,500 pilots, had 737's, MD88's, 757, 767, DC 8 and L10-11 pilots based there, and had International service to LGW and FRA.

Oh, and we also had a pilot base at ORD, 727's and DC 9's (they did all of the flying that those RJ's are doing today).

But now, the RJ is going to help develop those same markets...

Brilliant! Where's my Bonus?
