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.
