Your point about Wychor is well-taken.
I agree and while I wasn't quick enough to think of "douche bag Olympics" I did tell Lawson under gate C23 in Atlanta that his logic was flawed, he should be building bridges and his idea of trying to leverage furloughed pilots was "terrible."
The other side of the coin was that Lawson's concerns were dead accurate as proven by the disappearance of his airline. He had tried to get scope which bound Delta, but Woerth would not allow it. I think Prater later did allow a commitment from Delta to Comair and subsequently Moak authorized Pinnacle / Endeavor.
