While I understand and appreciate his aim, to boil it down, he's got the big wally for the little jet in order to fill the banks. And as we all know, the RJ has done as much harm to the mainline end the profession as Lorena did to John's junk. Let's revisit this topic in say, five years. Perhaps ten. History has a way of sorting the wheat from the chaff.
