Why would we need 30 A350Fs to support a postal contract that is largely domestic volume?

Carol was speaking SPECIFICALLY about the financial implications of the USPS contract - not about the overarching status of the airline.

Q1'24 Financial Statements show we have 21 new 767Fs remaining on order, and we've also recently taken delivery of two "certified preowned" Ochos that have not yet entered service.

The 170 positions created (by the recent Realignment, to support Postal) will grow our pilot group by the same amount of active pilots who retired under VTP last fall, and both IPNN and CPIL stated a similar-sized bid may follow later this year. Puppies and rainbows? Nah...but its nice to be growing again instead of shrinking.
