Uhhh, ok. I will. That's why I posted it. I'm not EVER going to post numbers without merit.
Whomever brainstormed a story that Mesaba would LOSE aircraft post merger "ain't so bright". I don't say that for any other reason that simple post bankruptcy economics. Delta now has a company, in Mesaba, that is now able to grow as big as scope will allow, that is wholly owned and has a contract with known costs through 2012. Plus, for whatever reason, they seem to be happy with them.
Now, I'm not going to pretend to be Nostradamus and try to figure out where Comair fits into the rationale but at present, it doesn't seem to fit at all.
