AWAC's performance numbers have always been very, very high. We led the way at United Express as well.
As we found out, doing a good job means nothing if the pilots at another carrier will fly for a nickel less per hour.
BTW, the other one is right. We have ACARS and do not call out our times. Haven't done that for several years. People said that when we got ACARS our performance numbers would plummet. Didn't happen.
