What he said. It's interesting to read the 2 sides going at it here. And there are elements of truth to both sides of the story. But what's even more interesting is that while you guys fight duke it out, BOTH sides of the house are shrinking and will continue to shrink. In five years or less, the scale of change so going to be so dramatic, that even senior guys are going to be left wondering what the #### just happened. It won't be pretty. So much flying is shifting back to the majors that a 30 year "regional" airline "lifespan" won't be realistic any more. 5-7 year churn will be the norm, with the regionals become a stepping stone again the way they used to be.
