Every MEC has a faction that takes the "I've got mine" approach but UA has perfected that approach more than any I've ever seen.
While I want to personally pound Whiteford for the EMB170 deal, it wouldn't have made a hoot of difference. You'd just see 40 more CRJ700's flying around. Oh, and I'd bet you my condo that Glenn would have still parked the guppies. It's upside down by $75k, but still
