I'm not particularly fascinated by this discussion. Just pointing to the interesting shift from "the airplanes will come anyway" to "we didn't want them anyway". I just don't buy it.

I don't think this was a particularly effective carrot, as I said, although I'd be more interested in anything that adds to mainline flying, and improves the ratios. The ratios in the defunct TA can be discussed if/when we get another deal, but for now, it's useless.
My story/prediction has been the same all along.

No one has acted on the 190s, either... just as I predicted. TD promised me United would jump on them the moment we turned down the contract.
