George, not a great job at all.

Your examples above mean the network shrinks by the volume loss of DCI. No one inside or outside of the company is forecasting that.

Delta's planned network growth is 1% or greater.

Your charts above assume DCI utilization apparently normal for the 450 planned aircraft, yet if so, where do the passengers go when the network shrinks? Delta freely sends them to United or SWA or ?. Not likely and it invalidates your charts. This is an example of someone desperately searching for a reason to say "no' that manufactures things to fit into his tin foil hat.

Bad info.
