[QUOTE="soberups, post: 457086, member: 14668"] Corporate didn't want there to be a peak, because they didnt want to spend the money on it. Therefore, the pressure was on to IE to tell Corporate what it wanted to hear instead of what it needed to hear. The underlying problem with IE is a total lack of accountability. IE makes its projections and mandates the number of routes that each center is allowed to dispatch, but is then free of any responsibility for actually making service on those packages when its projections are wrong. I remember prior to Y2K when everyone was worried about the computers malfunctioning. There was a guy, I cant remember his name, who was in charge of making sure that the all of the nation's airport flight control radars and computers would be updated to work properly on 1-1-00. This guy made an announcement that he and his family would be on an aircraft making final approach and landing just after 12:00 AM on New Years Day. THAT my friends is accountability, and being willing to stand behind your numbers. We need that kind of accountability from IE. What we have instead are a bunch of butt-kissing number crunchers who can hide in an office when their "projections" are off by 300% because they never have to get their hands dirty cleaning up the resulting mess.
