Sorry, too many years of watching management sweep real costs under the table or slide them under another column in order for their objective number to look better.
That is how they justify the regional jet operation. I have no doubt that is how they are justifying their "game changer" of an airplane at this juncture.
Sorry, I don't buy company propaganda lightly. And yes, I have been at meetings where board financial information has been discussed.
At any rate, not trying to get into a urinating contest. Just didn't want to let your statement of fact go unchallenged.

Ahh, let me clarify. I WAS at the meeting in ORD when the 787 was briefed and even spoke with the fleet manager yesterday about this. When I post there is no conjecture. I post based on what I get in meetings and I am allowed to share.
