EDGAR Filing Documents for 0001019687-12-003196

*page 13, document 2.
How many 737-900s are being added in that time?

It doesn't make too much difference since the 737s are slated as replacement aircraft but with this little growth I wonder what else is being parked.

88 717s added
16 MD-90s added
= 104 added aircraft but the fleet is only going up by 66.

How many DC9s are currently in the system?

I thought that was a little odd too, but I imagine they are being conservative, its the prudent thing to do. That may be the "real" number as of this week, but those plans seem to change every month or so. Don't want to tip our hand to other airlines if there is a change in the works.

Thus far I am placing a "cautious" trust in this management team to make smart moves that will strengthen the enterprise, and a strong enterprise is able to increase and sustain a profit with that growth.

The July 1st Fleet Booklet (posted on Deltanet) shows 722 mainline aircraft of which 19 are DC-9's.

Great with kids.

Linda Wheatley: Karl, you know what? Melinda here was voted employee of the month at the dollar store last February. Isn't that something?
Karl: Yes ma'am, I reckon.
Melinda: Well, when you like pricing items as much as I do, it's just bound to happen sooner or later, I guess.

About 2/3 through the article:



I read that Eithad is discussing a possible code share with just Air France. I recall our latest contract provides even greater protection against Codeshares then we already had.
