Of course we all want them to stay at Eagle. That goes without saying.

While you may be factually correct about who is currently certified to fly into ASE, you are profoundly naïve if you think that someone else can't get that same certification. I guarantee that the certification of ASE isn't even on the top 100 list of management when it comes to who and where those aircraft will go.

From a pilot's perspective ASE is a big deal. From Mgmt's perspective of feed and revenue etc, it's really, really small potatoes... or crumbs... however you want to look at it
