At this point, "We'll do better next time" is more intellectually honest than "They still owe us"
I agree with you Boomer. IMO, that is exactly what we said.
At this point, the contract is done. I am pleased with the company's success with its "flightplan." I'd also like to keep Ed up a little more at night.
Our contract is better than many, no question. It definitely does not capture whatever historic percentage of the company's revenue the previous pilot contracts used to.
