FIGMO,

Welcome to the incredible shrinking airline - Delta. Although Delta is shrinking - the Delta network is growing. This is what the union, all airline unions, failed to foresee and protect against. Granted the BK gun pointed at our heads did not help, but if you go back 25 years or even longer pretty much all Pilot unions blew it. SWA is now going to experience pretty munch what everyone else already has - with one possible exception. I doubt they will repeat our disastrous Scope failures.

Sometime I feel like the guy in the cartoon climbing up the burning rope. I am making progress up the rope but never get any further from the bottom!
