I left the industry for a bit and worked on wall street. You need to also look at the big picture. Which airline is consistently the #1 or #2 on time performer for UAX for the past 2-3 years? I don't see that changing. UAL would never want to put all their regional feed into one basket. Are you saying that it would be a wise business move to award 30 more aircraft to a regional feed that is about to operate 100 of that type already for UAL? You guys do have a lot of 700/900s plus EJET orders. But how many 200's do you guys have to shed?
Forgive the grammatical errors as I'm typing from my Ipad.
