If so, my bad. Theoretically, the 717 was supposed to be doing that LGA flying...

Next AE in AUG. No B717 category on the next AE. They'll wait for the following AE to get the 365 day bid to close the DC9 bases while opening the B717.

Bill excited about his left seat prospects. He should be. I'm really happy for him.

Most of the time I just think he's bating people and looking to get their goat if you will.

Ol' Lawnchair's already got the goat. He's just trying to push it over the fence ( at least that was his excuse when he got caught.).

Not only that, but from the company's perspective, its just the right thing to do. Starting off with "we put the expense on you just because we can" doesn't really set the tone very well especially for a company that, despite being a legacy, still puts itself out there as a close knit family, etc. and all that jazz.

Losing billions and trying to survive? Okay, fair enough, I guess. Making billions and projected to continue? Its time to do the right thing, its as simple as that. WWCEWD?
