I see what you mean. I was thinking UAL's international ops would help subsidize domestic, but that isn't going to make up for much if oil stays high.
 
Boyd isn't always correct, but he does seem to see trends a few steps ahead of the typical "expert" on Wall St.

I recall everyone thinking US Air was history when SWA started in PHL. Now, looking back, it seems like a non-event.

USAir is history, they were purchased by AWA and will be run by Dave Parker. All that will remain in a few years is the paint job.

You sound like some old dude with a long beard on the porch of a shotgun shack yelling at passersby. The straight jacket is on its way.
 
This is the Boyd Group bios right from their website. This says a lot about their intentions. Who is paying for their EXXXXXPERRRRRRTTT analysis?

I think I'll start an aviation consulting group. I'll call it The Goggles Group. I can publish sarcastic editorials by pulling un-informed conjecture and opinions out of my arse once a week. Who's with me?
 
I think I'll start a group too

It'll be called the, 'I'm a really smart pilot who really can't stand to hear anything even remotely negative about any company I may work or wish to work for, so I will dig feverishly to find any amount of information to discredit said opinion(s) or simply ignore them-unless they agree with me, than never mind it's obviously true everyone can see it' Group. I think that may not all fit on the groups charter message, and could possibly be a run-on sentence, I'll run it by a publisher whose work I like to be sure though.
