Do not forget that UPS is in the top 5 companies in number of railcars owned. Right now, we have a lot of volume that is not "air" that moves by air. This company excels at cost analysis. They'll figure out a way to keep the vast majority of this volume away from the IPA. If we get 20 DC8 equivalents out of this "mega" deal, I'll be amazed. Kinda a glum outlook, but to them its just bidness.

I've heard it will be peak volume every night with the DHL deal. We all know how many contractors we see that time of year so if this goes through, our additional flying will probably be somewhere in the middle.
