That article is what we call in the security business a clue. I think we are some 40 airplanes away from it now. Call it 45. Then its 3:1. 33 airplanes at 3:1=99 76 seaters. That is under the current contract. The we park the dc-9s because we have the 717s. That's 32 aircraft subtracted from mainline and 0 subtracted from DCI.

I am not selling anything, and I am not buying anything. Section 1 is a HUGE noose around our necks--kinda like the national debt. Sooner or later, if we want out of the hole, we gotta pay the piper.

I am trying to talk myself out of a slam dunk no
