I nominate Carl and FTB to create a new pin, lanyard, tie or even hat band that could be our new fighting slogan to get our flying back. Some new jazzy slogan about " Screw the bureaucratic monster ALPA, we want DPA!"

Africa flying
With a projected loss in Africa overall....how is our premium return working? ( from the past Aviation week)
Middle Eastern carriers have to prepare for tougher market conditions, given their large exposure to the weakening European long-haul markets. IATA now sees them reaching a $300 million profit next year, down from its previous $700 million guidance. Latin America will amass $100 million in profits, while Africa faces $100 million in combined losses, the association projects.
“The growth rate of premium traffic is slowing,” says Lobbenberg. While it is still positive, the trend is coming down. “I think premium traffic is going to decline,” he notes. And with that decline, yields in the critical sector also are expected to come under pressure, hurting the bottom line of major network carriers. “We think the premium carriers are going to struggle quite badly” in Europe, Lobbenberg says.

Aren't you assuming that for that to be true the # of rj's remaining the same?Didn't the company recently sign a new agreement with gojet?So I think thus new rj expansion could be funded with the new influx of gojet aircraft and no effect on the other hubs that you mentioned.With respect to the erj questions of who operates them,asa/expressjet,chautauqua,and wasn't the gojet announcement for erj's or not?

What started out as a 3 minute clip (outstanding by the way) ended up wasting 45 minutes. In my best John Stewart impersonation, "Damm you, You tube movie clips!!!!"
