We have a very smart ownership. They WILL grow the company if THEY want to. That being said, I think they do want to grow the company. They have always tended to do things differently than other carriers. Lots of the "AWAC is a lost cause" attitude comes from not getting the Midwest flying. Even though it would have been nice for us to be in our own backyard, personally I think they pulled their bid as soon as the Air Tran acquisition was announced. To must risk on their end to grow your company by 40%, just to lose it all with a take over. Things will change, it just takes time. Like someone else has said, we are in a good situation to take on more flying, as our staffing is not as low as the other "big" players.
