It's water under the bridge, but for what it's worth, you're wrong. TSA had first dibs but decided leasing 22 planes beyond the contract didn't make much sense that's why they decided against it even "during the worst economic times ever". AWAC was also asked but could not get concessions out of their pilots. Both turned it down and then XJT got it.
