Help me out here Shy, because I'm sincerely trying to follow you.

You are referring to 9E's 140 200's, right?

And Delta never intended on collecting the $62 million, that the sale of XJ to Pinnacle and the ensuing merger was on purpose to push 9E into bankruptcy so they could get out of the 50 seat business faster?
