On the contrary. The MEC looked at the proposal along with the CPA SKW negotiated with CAL. And they saw that CAL would be able to rebid all 205 aircraft and that if XJT didn't win it, it would allow them to transfer ALL aircraft to the winner. Couple that with second CPA SKW negotiated with CAL to use 29 XJT aircraft with SKW pilots and the offer by SKW to the XJT MEC that we could keep our flying if we became 'cost competative,' they were FAR from having tunnel vision.
