Anybody see the Reuters story that said Trainer is supposed to make a $300 million yearly profit with a $16 crack spread?
It went on to say that the current Brent crack is roughly $20, and the Bakken is running about $42!
The gain is roughly $18.75 mil per dollar of crack.
$20 crack would yield $375 mil yearly
$42 crack would yield $787.5 mil yearly
If UAL wants to buy a refinery we should either buy it to capture the "20% domestic and whatever % international", or bid it up high so UAL massively overpays.

The PNCL BK is going to have an interesting effect on the wet-lease contractor industry.
IMHO, the next DALPA scope goal WRT RJ's needs to be no 'next-gen' power plants or turboprops at DCI, that will remove the problem through natural efficiency without the need for charts/ratios/fleet counts.

I hope they do this, though.... but in my talks with "captain" AG (
), he doesn't think RJs should be at mainline at the payrates we have on them now. 
No bueno!

Delta pilots fly RJ's? To quote one of my recent Captains... "I don't want to fly RJ's." This was in response to me telling him that the 70 new large RJ's should be flown by Delta pilots. So to answer your question... No. They'll be flown by the regionals, of course.
