Wow, a scary earnings report during a contract vote. How totally unexpected.

Pre-tax loss of $160 million, inclusive of the E190 asset impairment charge ($319 million impairment charge).

You all realize we don't normally include a "Special Item" loss of $319,000,000 every quarter, right? Our fuel cost for the quarter was $491,000,000 which is our biggest operating expense. So, if you add in an addition $319,000,000 .... then yes, you will show a "loss" for the quarter.

The sky is not falling.

Nope. It’s over. Vote yes and we lockin substandard everything forever. Everything sucks. Should have stayed with the direct relationship. Wish I went to truck driving school.

One would have to be tone deaf though to disregard the signs brought up yesterday though. It's like your fingers are in your ears, you just don't want to hear what they're saying.

It took us 3 years to get here with consistently positive outlooks. We're hitting some choppy water, last quarter and next and now, now you think we're really going to exact every last penny we feel we're owed? I'm glad our union at least has the big picture in mind, it's about getting the best deal you can while you can get it.

$319M is roughly $90k per pilot. This looks to be nearly the entire cost of switching fleets. Funny that they cram it all into one quarter's earnings 3 years before we take delivery. I wonder, what could be their motivation for generating a large paper loss at this time?

I am sure it has nothing to do with our amazing (for the company) contract.

You guys do realize that new airplanes and scary earnings reports are straight out of the F&H playbook right?
