How about the 25 billion or so in acquisition costs, capex and strikes?
I'm still not believing outsourcing is all that great a deal for Delta. No discredit to you. I never liked Leo or Fred.
I didn't buy it for a minute, I was just trying to relate how "they" think about RJ's, and the excuses they will throw at us.
The RJ whipsawing philosophy gives them negotiating leverage against we Mainline guys too, just look how quickly we caved on low pay raises (4833), profit sharing give backs, and more 76 seat RJ scope in C2012! All Richard had to do was threaten to "Re-engine" the 50 seaters.
