Bit wait, how will we enforce it, because SKYW didn't agree to that and has pre-existing contracts that DL would have to terminate early? Supposedly there are massive penalties that make it disasterous for DL to do so...I don't believe it because I thought the vast majority of the penalties were the leases, which we could just dole out to other back stabber DCI carriers that would trip all over themselves and deal aces for the "growth" planes, but that's what some people keep saying...so if true then DL would be stuck with them even if they violated our TA, which was signed long after their CPA's.

So which is it?

I'd almost be tempted to vote for the TA just to put Atkin in his place when that dellusional IndyAir wannabe bites off WAY more than he can chew. That is, if I thought it was enforceable on our end.
From what I am hearing he is just waiting to comense his go it alone plan. He has learned from Beadford et al as well.

The financing line of credit could also just be for his share of the new large rj's.
