[QUOTE="Aquaman, post: 5917782, member: 68552"] You worked for months and all you came up with was 1. Leave everything alone 2. Operation is non adjustable 3. Lose the contract Ya man I can see why you guys got grilled…. They definitely put the big thinkers on this. Great problem solving. I find it very hard to believe you guys could find zero flexibility within this operation to move lower volume. Did you even look at trucking it in the areas a smaller plane would be problematic? RTD’s are massively underutilized at this company. The company uses them for 3 deliveries, a ramp shuttle and a 4 hour nap. Load these guys up with postal across the country and move some of it that way. Just seems lazy to say “a smaller plane forces the bigger plane problem on another area.” Ya no duh, so we’re saying lower volume is essentially a eat the cost situation because we can’t logistically adapt to it.
