I was actually expecting an aircraft acquisition, other than a bunch of Next Gen CRJ900's. Something to prime the pump. Instead we heard talk like the contract was a foregone conclusion which reduces unit costs and increases productivity.
With a bunch of CRJ900's we will not need to acquire a 100 to 120 seat jet at mainline, or anything of the sort.

I guess from what the said the various holders of others wealth don't want to fork over twice what a company is worth when the CEO walks in with an attitude and a hoodie.

FB is no G00gle, who needs ads if you can get people to voluntarily put up your ads for free?

The problem is the RLA specifically spells out the current scheme. It would be very difficult to gain something beyond the contract window without extending the contract window itself.

The Euro has to Federalize (in which case I would agree with you) or just cut the laggards loose and risk the political instability in the civilization which invented Democracy and the Forum.
Delta was surprised last year. Turns out the rich and the bankers buy as many airline tickets as they ever did. Maybe even more.
Portugal, Ireland and Spain are where the real pin action is at.

Black smoke is usually the engine running too rich and all the gas isn't being burned.
Oil leak into the radiator and coolant leaks into engine may be related. If a flaw happens between the oil and water chambers then oil will be forced into the water system when the engine is running and the oil pressure is high.

Ethanol (the kind in adult beverages) molecule has a polar end and a nonpolar end. So if we add ethanol we probably can get oil and water to mix and burn cleanly.
