100% correct and I love when people say well the bid packet says we have 55-57 airplanes. Do people really think we don't have planes down for heavy maintenance or a few spare sitting around? You don't run 55-57 lines of flying with 55-57 planes. You need a few more than that. Check out the planespotters.net website it's a pretty accurate fleet tracker. Looks like we have 66 airplanes as of today.
