No need to get defensive. Its just a discussion. I was just pointing out that the two acquisitions are very different. While YX may not be in bankruptcy, they were certainly on their way out. Frontier has done extremely well while in bankruptcy, and never would have gotten there if the credit wasn't pulled out from underneath them. The biggest difference is F9 bringing airframes into the equation while YX is not.
