I just don't think we're doing the hiring needed to open a base. Class 3 weeks ago had 17 people in it.
It would make sense for AAG to shuffle the regional feed and give LAX to SkyWest. 20 more planes spread between DFW and ORD could improve the flight file.
If Envoy is on track to hire its fly goal for 2019, then I can see why they would be ok with a small class here and there. The last class was a normal size.
