George,

That is a good plan. I'd perhaps add that we need to "production balance" the DCI flying into a forced sunset.

Our MEC has resisted, to the point of outright hostility, the notion that we should fly small jets. Jeesh, as I look at yet another displacement in a few weeks, it would be great to turn that internal mindset around.
