There is a shortage of crew at present otherwise we would not be wet leasing in additional capacity
We are short of crew at the moment without taking into account the expansion but when the training program is complete hopefully we should be fully up to strength. We just couldn't get the airplanes or crews trained in time for the short lead time into these new routes, we would have had to wet lease anyway.

To answer an earlier question there was going to be an expansion anyway but the demise of BMI Baby has accelerated the plans.
