At least we'll always have DFW... right?
Yeah I suppose I could see getting nervous as well, forgot all about the NYC stunt and as far as DFW goes, nothing is off the table.

you know how stupid aag and aa senior management are, they are talking about putting the IFE's back into to aircraft.
AAG owns 30% or so of Republic so they are not going to just let them die or languish. In terms of how we rank on the totem poll, we are the bottom but that is because we are cheap and a good backup plan if everything else goes south. Given we dont have to show a profit so to speak and that our budget is set in advance by AAG, we can cover things others won't. I still think it sucks, sure would be nice to have a decent bid packet once in awhile, especially given we are typically doing very well by all the metrics that matter.

Well as expected, DP's summer plan didn't work out very well and I would hope his time as CEO is coming to a close. Not that the next person in line wouldn't be the same way, but at least DP would be gone.
