If we cut more, then bring back some people, wouldn't that put us right back where we started?
We actually discussed that. Our problem was that we have continually been loosing aircraft since Ch.11 either due to lease returns or Delta taking aircraft. The company didn't trim the workforce to match the loss of aircraft. They didn't trim enough manpower the past two times to keep up with the incresesed fleet downsizing. Basically it's Delta's fault we're so expensive. I guess they don't have their MBA hats on down there! Once the cost structure is stabilized for a 100 aircraft fleet, if more aircraft are gained and pilots and FA's are recalled the cost remains the same or decreses due to "growth" and the cost is distributed out.
