I enjoyed the people immensely!
You are right. WU owns the planes and provides the customer group, Gama has the pilots, training, maintenance, and dispatch. WU has a certificate. They acquired TMC.
The point I think he was making was it’d be almost impossible to spin up a new group on the KAs without taking at least a small step back. Not to mention, in this current climate you aren’t going to find a much cheaper pilot group with the qualifications that they require for us.
