Doug defers to Isom

Isom: Thank you for your effort to attract pilots. There is no better place to be than envoy. The story is getting out there.

Kenji: Envoy is getting 40 175s. Need to balance aircraft arrival, attrition and recruitment. Aircraft that are being parked are 140s because they are older. The parked aircraft are NOT "new" aircraft.

[Thanks for speaking Sam!]

He said There is no better place to be than envoy, PSA, or Piedmont. The story is getting out there.

Why spin it? You guys have such selective hearing. Your like my teenager or 4 yr old.

And yet the passengers keep forking over their money. If they go to United, it's the exact same thing. The sad thing is, no one really cares about performance.

Out of DFW? Try catching a ride out of Dulles, Houston, or Phoenix. The Dallas problems are well documented.

It is silly that Envoy is one of the few regionals able to staff yet it's losing airframes to other regionals. Go figure.

It is all about the money and the cost of doing business. They would rather move the flying around even though there are some current struggles in order to save a lot of money.

Not trying to spin anything and sorry for the omission.
