I'm not talking about middle management here. They just take orders from Inc. I'm honestly surprised that many of you guys don't see what's going on here.
Also it's not whipsawing, your contract makes you too expensive, it is beyond what the market dictates amongst regionals, you simply cannot compete. What would you have inc do? Lose RFPs by bidding high or bid low and be unprofitable? You aren't just competing with Skywest you're competing with all the regionals more specifically 145 operators such as TSA that are cheaper and hence win RFPs.
