This loan will not only make RAH money off interest, but it also protects money owed RAH off the prior contract.

As of right now, this isn't a way to add new flying, but a way to protect money already owed. So yes, that is a GOOD business practice. No CEO would just let that amount of money dissapear. The Frontier jobs will be protected as a result, but you're right, its not why the loan is being made.

You crying about RAH taking over the world with 70 seat flying has no place in this latest loan. Im not going to sit here and say a future contract isn't possible, but its not happening right now or in the near future. There may be reasons to bash airlines flying 70 seat aircraft. There are quite a few operators out there. Not just RAH. However, this has nothing to do with it.
At least someone gets it. hip hip horray for you flyguy! Its no point debating with uneducated people because all they want to do is throw mud in our face and get you upset over it. Don't let them win. Some people will never get it.
