The company actually figured that in the end, they got 85% value for each dollar that we pledged. Not our fault, theirs entirely, but that was what it came out to and explains a little bit of their reluctance to go forward with MOU3....that and the fact that they are a bunch of butt heads trying to pick a fight <G>
The Butt Head factor may show up more as the volume picks up and other carriers skim off the new business, competition buying airplanes and preparing to expand , Fedex retaining people and reportedly increasing some flying.
Given the honesty level of UPS we will have to watch closely that they aren't double breasting us some places in the world.
