If they don't tie it in, then it's like two ecosystems evolving separately, and you could see the west coast 717's mutate into some horrible, surfer-speak-soul-patch-wearing-tofu-eating-free-love hippyfest, with ties optional and pilots with suntans. Not on my watch. No sir!!
Now you've got me convinced.
I still don't get it though, how can they operate the 717s with all of those Narwhals trying to kill everyone? This is why I don't sleep at night.
Well, that. And this website. And the 1.56 ratio. And the missing thrust reverser lockout pin covers. And the little four propeller drone outside my window.
