We're talking about OUR COMPANY, not Delta.

So, what was the max capacity turboprop at that time? You don't have to answer.....
Sure, you can mention that BAE-ATP, but that's not really a player here.

Sure, you wanna create a false argument for when I said "anything else that relaxed scope", I should have worded it better for you. But I ALSO didn't blame it on anything after 9/11/during the bankruptcy period.
