Is it your fault Midwest management stuck with the MD-80 with no other future plans and failed to predict the price of oil?
Midwest Airlines announced their intent to ground the twelve remaining McDonnell Douglas MD-80 jets in its fleet. According to the company, the MD-80 "is a very fuel inefficient airplane and at the cost of fuel today it's just become economically infeasible to operate these planes."
Are you going to accept the 170 contract offered to you by your own management or will you stand firm on your soapbox by refusing to fly anything less than an MD-80 and continue blaming all of your problems on RAH pilots?

Glad to hear you finally understand what I've been saying....
