This place always tries to invent the most horrific results and yet they never seem to occur. George was grossly wrong on 2012 so his predictive record does not impress me. The company paid us off for the 4 years they were out of compliance and it's not rational that they would then agree to some metric they can't hit after they paid us off. You wouldn't accept that deal. Taking the LHR stuff out is good because that is a growth market. I looked at the scope compliance stuff on the alpa site and if I knew how to attach it here I would. You can see that international block hours are going up. APC says the sky is falling, at some point you have cried wolf too much.
Serious question because I don't know. How is LHR a growth market when it's tightly slot restricted?
