They also said 2003 was going to be a year of recovery...

Ditto that! I keep telling people that every New Year I hope for nothing more than a boring, uneventful year. A stabilization of bad news would be great for me.

I agree. It was also the reason I stated I hoped they are correct.

Our forecasts have been wrong for the last two and a half years.

PF not PR?

PR is a partial payback day from an inverse assignment or a green slip whilst on reserve.

Either way I am in the top 20 when I retire and the top 2% for almost the last decade. I personally see this and do not mind a downgrade or two. It is what it is. No sense in getting upset over something you cannot control.

ACL your projections are all based on the company being static, DL not buying anyone else...or DL not getting bought. As we all know, the airline industry is not static.

Sure you're not, huckleberry.

I wouldn't have come along if you could get your "facts" straight. You are wrong, you have been all along, about just about everything. Yet you keep on throwing things out there, seeing if anything will stick.
