Yes. I asked one of our pilots who is doing some of the interviews. I don't think a lot of our pilots realize how bad the type of guy that pays a scab to fly in the right seat of a Beech 1900 for an opportunity to get a job at Pinnacle is. These guys are all about themselves and will take any shortcut to get there as fast as possible. Pinnacle is full of these guys and they get to jump the line. It has already been confirmed that we have offered conditional employment to pilots that have social and confidence issues. It is what it is. I guess in the long run, we will just be a domestic feeder to the foreign wide body carriers anyhow.
