Sounds great but is anyone else worried that with all this growth we're about to experience* and that we're only down like 1000 pilots in 3 years, which is more retirements than we have coming up in the next 3-4 years, and there's no money in hiring pilots, that we might eventually have to hire some pilots to slightly reduce the rate of shrinking the number of pilots? Capacity restraint, leveraging synnergies, yielding to LCC's to preserve...yields? At least the new peak hour hump is in March. So once we get past that we're home free for another year.

And maybe, just maybe, the 717's are delayed but the 76's are coming anyway, AF/KLM/AZ have no intention of reducing anything beyond the general bilateral reductions so you can rebalance, Virgin ain't reducing anything either and you ain't growing into what they currently do for sure.



So what do I have to do to get you into a scope rebalance today?

OK, aren't I just the worst?
