Easyswap works great, only downside is that it's for PCs. I use the *05 stuff alot but be careful what you ask for.

Senior Guys take note!! or not......
CHina flying offered by VOR holdings. I would seriously think about an option like this if the Kids were gone I was over 55 and just wanted to try something different. It is China but it also makes one think! If only US airlines even paid close to this would be nice, but then again I have too many things stateside going on. Some of the work packages are interesting...

It goes without saying that as Delta fails to invest in an efficient 100 to 130 seat jet, the ongoing cost of the inefficient Douglas jets will increase the pressure to outsource. We've got to get the right tools to compete.
* Delta's 10K suggests outsourced flying is responsible for 21% of revenue, but generates 47% of our operating profit. If true, this gives some idea of the cost to "take it back."

Perhaps Sailing, Slow, or Alpha will share the real numbers that helped reach the decision that was made in the Compass matter. It would be a very productive discussion.

I know we have some smart people on VA ave., but the question I have is how do they attribute those percentages? If a pax pays $500 to fly AGS-ATL-LAX, how much revenue gets credited to mainline and how much to the rj? Can that formula change to put more impressive numbers in front of the NMB?
Also, (and I honestly don't know) are those numbers just for RJ outsourcing or does it include the JV's and AK codeshare? Pretty easy to show big profit percentages if you take half the revenue of a full A380 with little to no capital outlay. In addition, what kind of accounting goes on with respect to our side of the JV? Do we account all the expenses of operating a 767 across the pond, but only tally half the money towards the "profit?"
Does the number only represent outsourced flying or does it include other forms of revenue derived from outsourcing?
I have not looked at the 10K, but if they did not firmly define how they arrived at those numbers, those percentages become very suspect to me.
