Was told, second hand, that they would be online by next summer.

Still want to see 90-100 seat jets on the property. Need to put an end to this rj creep.

Go back to your hole if you're going to be negative about gaining airframes.

Some people when handed a free donut would complain that the center part is missing, or that it isn't chocolate covered, etc. They only see the negative in things.

Add another 50 frames and that would be just about the right amount considering the loads and plague around here.

Paybanding. Now that's another issue. Let me see if I have this straight....

The A320 has ten or twelve more seats (or so) than the A319. So, it pays MORE.
The 767-400 has a whole lot less capacity (fares & freight) than the 747-400, yet it pays the same. Is that right?? Thank goodness we have paybanding to.....uh....er.....um.......

Bonus additional rumor: the UCH BOD has approved the not-so-secret 777-300ER order.

It's OK because they'll be based in CLE
