Mgmt ought to be embarrassed.
As I said about DFW and the ATRs a few months ago: "this would be a hell of a place to open an airline!"
The mechanics in DFW have gotten much better. The problem is they are contract mx so a 30 minute job takes two hours. There are other problems that go with it but that is a start.
