2% lower is roughly 4% of our share of flying.

As to Sink's claim more 76 seat RJ's (with ratios) is good, we'll continue to disagree. The latest claim you made a couple of times is those of us opposed to more RJs at DCI think we'll see 76 seaters at mainline? Who ever said they expect that?

I was not allowed to even vote for the last TA.
Why weren't you?

Sink, who claimed we'll see 76 seaters at mainline?

Sorry Sailing. I was trying to double quote.

Why exactly do you post?
To expose just how ridiculous some of the SSDs sound. You think your insults and holier than thou attitude about things changes peoples' minds? Seriously?

Various posters that argued on previous threads that the 76-seater is a very capable aircraft that the company must have, as they kill off the worthless 50-seaters. Wasn't that the point of this exercise: get the 76-seaters flown at mainline?

Who claimed we'd see 76 seat aircraft at mainline? Can you provide a quote?

Basically, you did.

We get 76-seaters gradually. Who bids them?

I think your assetion was that we have plenty of pilots who would love to fly them. I disagree.
