Can I suggest we focus on the road ahead instead of the rear view mirror?
While focusing on hypothetical outcomes, have you seen the numbers from F-NWA's Pacific route network?

My point is mainly that the F_NWA guys should use the integration methodology on a Alaska merger and see how they like the result. We are in the same boat together now.

True and we are pulling together to make what money there is to be made in this economy, but lets see if your displacement kum by yah tune changes when the time comes. Heck, even ACL was looking to bail when he saw the SLI and he'd be a great guy to work with.

*****ing about it on a web board is cathartic, true, and dammed fun. I wouldn't dare complain about it at work since I like free beer as much as any First Officer does.
