What is wrong with flying smaller airplanes? I wish we had 737s so we could be doing that flying instead of ASL. Yes, the proportion of WB flying goes down but the WB flying doesn’t. But I rather we do it in smaller airlines then not at all. In any case, we don’t choose the machines management needs to create revenue. We just operate them, whatever they are. But if we had scope protections, we would be doing more of that ASL flying,
