Nothing wrong or misleading at all. Just facts.

Did you see what the Arab Spring did to all European airlines? How about the Eurozone crisis? How about Air France looking for 10,000 people to take voluntary cuts (the first step)? I don't think you are looking at the BIG PICTURE here George. Europe isn't doing very well, and in the meantime this TA could give us a 19.7% raise in 2 1/2 years, while adding 88 717s for our domestic growth, while parking 200 RJs (adding 70 larger), and giving us a favorable ratio going forward. That needs to be in your big picture.
