When they asked for the 12/4 deal, do you think AAG was really hurting that badly they were on the verge of filing chapter 11 if they didn't get what they wanted? Put all the threats they made aside and think about that. Then think about if they would do it again. The answer is blatantly obvious. What I said earlier was not an attack on your pilot group. It's pure fact of this sector of the business. Do it as cheap as you can and keep going for more. What do they have to lose by trying to make regionals cheaper and increase their profit? Because AAG is a non-profit agency right?

I believe that is the main reason on why PSA voted in the TA. Look how easy it is to transfer aircraft. Envoy 47 700's to PSA. PSA had 49 before the TA was approved. As you can see it would of been a joke for AAG to transfer PSA's whole fleet elsewhere (14 700's to envoy and 35 200's to Air Wisconson would of been feasible). Its obvious that the threats made against PSA were in fact legitimate about closing shop. That is my speculation.
