It's also worth pointing out that, for a lot of bases, Gateway's more important than people may realize. Some of our bases aren't particularly commutable for a lot of the pilots that are assigned to them. Removing gateway would be a hard sell for a lot of folks, particularly on the 747.
Personally, I worry most about retirement and setting my kids up for life after me. That's where we really need to make our biggest gains. Again, these are my thoughts and nobody else's.
