That last RC post is a truism. If the business case is sound they will get them but they don’t need to get them? What if we said to make the business sound a new fleet is needed? The board and exec are paid handsomely to get these decisions right. Different leaders for different times...eg) Churchill. Maybe Clifford and Joyce have had their time in the sun and they aren’t the right people for this time.
All we see is growth opportunities and a training system under immense stress. These same execs were given a heads up numerous times that this crunch was imminent. Making a business case for new aircraft seems irrelevant when running the crewing operations efficiently is beyond this lot.
