Regarding the investor call, yes I’m aware of what was said. You’ll see when it starts rolling, the plan will take care of itself. I can’t get into the details here but it is a solid relationship with DHL and not one in which we are pigeons picking up crumbs. There’s no reason to argue any of these points though, right now it really just doesn’t matter - we’ll all see what the future brings. I hope everyone and their families weather this storm as well as possible whoever you work for and whatever you drive. Lololol (both in the air and on the ground)

Good luck with the freight deal. There is no telling what the legacy/regional mix is going to look like after all of this is over and having some type of diversified flying could be a big plus if the legacy companies start shifting puzzle pieces around again.
