I am in favor of one list because it makes us more powerful in negotiating. In addition, it will be difficult to do under their new CAL CPA that last 10 years. They have to re-fleet some of the XJT jets under the agreement and the agreement is between UAL/ASA, so the new jets will have to come to new Atlantic Southeast under the CPA so ASA can get out of the terrible XJT leases on the jets, again listen to the earnings call it was all laid out. In addition, they mentioned considering buying Comair if it could be worked out with DAL for a long term CPA, they felt Comair may be a good fit.
