Would think this as well, challenge with contract flying always will be that the operator wants the work too much, and with the competition out there, so sells it just to cheap... and in case of WX her cost side is totally wrong.. pilot salary due to their historics are just completely crasy, not that i not wish their pilots the wage they have... but the historic contracts are from another planet and they have a few of those boys around.. just have a look at PPJN for an indication...
