I hope we revisit the E170/175 situation. Revisiting the Compass situation would be a disaster. We don't want to bring any flying to the mainline we do not own. To do so is a invitation to disaster as soon as the next contract negotiations. The flying must be scoped to the mainline first. Then its up to management to decide how to shift that flying. They can merge Compass or other airlines at that point. The key is we MUST OWN THE FLYING!
