Kirby is smart, aggressive, and sitting on piles of money. If the oil stays high it's not just the airlines who are hurt, it's the full economy. What that means and how it's impacted with retirements is too difficult for my crystal ball. I'm just happy I'm at ~70% system seniority.

It's a good test to find out if Kirby's statements on furloughing is as laughable as Doug Parker's famous "I don't think we're ever going to lose money again."

Specialized equipment and tooling can't be rebuilt with imported slave labor.
