OR...
You could draw a line in the sand NOW and say, "No more! We've already given you too many, and too big. We will fly the 76 and larger at mainline."
And you could get tabled by the NMB for many years and accomplish nothing. That horse has long left the barn. Not a completely lost cause though, I'm thinking around 2018 we will be able to accomplish that. Until then let's reduce outsourced jobs every contract. Win win.
