"NWA is gonna cancel our flying if you don't sign our last, best and final offer." Two days later, 10 year deal signed with NWA. "We can't get anymore flying unless you sign this deal." Less than a week later, -900s announced with Delta. "We can't afford to pay you that." Few days later, announce the purchase of Colgan AND orders for Q400s. "We NEED this health care proposal, or we can't afford anything else." Two days later, they announce the XJ purchase. The guys across the table representing 9E management haven't changed, so I don't trust them any more than I did in Section 6.
