It will be interesting to see what management does (gives insight into their internal forecasts) and how it plays out over peak. Our CEO has made a lot of hay over how we don’t need a service guarantee anymore since we are so much better than USPS and FedEx. One blown peak could destroy that.

Are those planes beside the 29 wide bodies you claim are flying our freight? You spend more time trolling our board than you do actually posting on yours.

Yes, that is the board you seem to like to troll on. Why do you spend so much time there?
