Once you make your first million get on the share holders meeting with your 10,000 shares and give Doug an earful. Until then keep flying your plane and shut up so that people won't see how dumb some of your comments are..
Are you going after Commutair for flying Horizon painted -200s? Are you commenting on ASA for CRJ700s in Horizon cheatline? How about Pinnacle CRJs flying around in NW airline colors..

I didn't mean US Airways was afraid of the competition, I just meant on 170 lines. I'm sure RAH/Midwest would like to do some MKE-CLT flying but because they are flying 170's for US Airways they can't. From what understand they can't because of the "do not compete" clause of the contract. Correct me if I wrong.

republic is a lcc now with frontier. I would think the do not compete clause is not the case.

Free market is collusion in your book I take it.

You obviously have no idea what I'm even talking about.

Contract ends 10/2015 with the caveat of reduced phase out of E175 flying protracted to their purchase and placement into service...which the last aircraft would be phased out sometime in 2019...I think.

Spare aircraft flying in other livery flying in the LCC system is a negotiated agreement.

Beats me on the routes.

I've flown MCI-DCA-MCI for F9 one day and the same route for Airways the next.
