So you’re saying that when the majority of a company blocks out on time, is slow to push out of the gate, taxis slow, flies slow in order to maximize block because of the way their company pays won’t affect performance? I could see that if the arrival time was within A14. But I don’t think that’s the case. And you know how hard it is to catch up when you’re behind schedule. I guarantee you if Endeavor or Delta got rid of block or better you would see a gradual increase in SAT’s and a reduction in performance

They have over 300 CRJ’s doubtful. SLC airport is in a major gate pinch. They are about to run Busses to hard stand aircraft while they do the switch from the E gates to the new terminal siting right behind it, as the E gates need torn down for the new terminal to work. No room for aircraft unless they pull a equal amount out..

I dont know if it matters to the conversation but skywest flies 250 because that's what the company wants. Comair did the same thing with Calculated Index and everyone complained they were suddenly slow one day. Regionals dont normally get CI because the company has a tough time justifying the pilots are too expensive when the computer says fly slow because saving the gas makes.more sense than the 5 -10 extra you'll get.
