Sunvox, I will have to disagree about SFO 76T base. We have very limited types of flying, and I do not think the draw down will affect us very much. We primarily do LIH, CDG, and PS to JFK with a smattering of trips to EWR and IAH. I don't think our flying will change much.

PS planes are staying, and LIH has to stay a 757-200. Guppies can't handle the short runway, and the 757-300 can't get off the ground. 767's do quite nicely but they took all those planes for international.

So, in summary, I don't see SFO 757 flying being drawn down much beyond what we are doing right now. Otherwise, your logic seems to be sound. No BAT in SFO because no 756 base.
