This is how I feel as well. Not only have I been late waiting for a gate, but more than once we've landed with time to spare only to see A14 slip away just getting from the north complex over to the box. Have something like that happen at 0900 and it snowballs into the rest of the day.

I would love to see the delay reports and see how much of our performance is on us. I get it, we have a lot of new captains here, but surely that can't account for most or even a lot of it. I'm a new captain, and on reserve I've flown with a lot of new FOs. Rarely are we late and when we are it's almost always the fault of the station or the unique issues dealing with LAX.

I would very much also like to see Mainline's performance in LA and how it compares to ours. I just really don't know what else we can about our D0/A14 when so much of it is outside our control.
