How many RJ's does the SWAPA scope allow, and how many pilots did SWA furlough?
There are many reasons an airline expands or contracts. Scope is just one of those reasons. To state as you do above that "the" reason (by omission of any other reason) is misleading.
Funny, we're up to page 7 and no response from Slow. It seems every time a logical argument that actually might prove him wrong comes up he just ignores it.
Slow, I like the balance you bring (most of the time) especially when you bring ALL the fact's not just the ones that support your argument!
