To your spirit point I’m as confused as you are. I got through a lot of that 200 page bankruptcy document and it appears to me the leases and very limited infrastructure are all they have.
I agree with this, but would offer one thought...

Were in the long game. We cant just try something for 6 months and say that it didn't work and try something else. We have to commit - for better or worse - for the long haul to allow JetForward (god, I hate saying that) to gain traction. Its like pulling out of a route after 3 months because it wasn't profitable...

This year will be telling for sure, and would have given JF nearly 2 years to produce results. After that, time to drain the swamp.
