Saying you doubt that Titan won't evolve into anything isn't good enough. It needs to be addressed in Scope -- regardless of what union we end up with. This is VERY serious stuff, gang.
It is not unusual for airline holding companies to have leasing subsidiaries. A quick google finds USAirways leasing, AMR leasing and UAL leasing subsidiaries. There was a bit of an internal squabble at USAir “back in the day” when marketing found themselves working against Value Jet, to whom USAir Leasing had provided -9s. So sometimes these things bite management.

You and I may not like it, but it is the normal way of structuring airlines these days. And ALPA does not seem to object (which, to be fair to ALPA, would probably be a waste of time).
