The company has made it clear, and is correct in doing so, that the revenues made from CS and Maint of other airlines will not subsidize our higher cost of flying. They are opposite sides of the company and 1 is not meant to carry the other. C.S. and Maint revenues do make the company more profitable, which makes us as a company better, and gives us a higher profit sharing payment.

And no.....I'm not a Riddle grad/intern?

Does anyone know when the last time there was an RFP/RFI? I'm curious to hear whether we are being beat based on costs or if companies just haven't put out any new flying to bid???
