[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2717303, member: 58386"] No I wasn't talking about Ground in particular. What I was referring was a new entrant into that segment of the market While it is a capital intensive, labor intensive, regulatory intensive business and the backers of a new entrant would have to wait at least a decade for the the returns to arrive there is nothing to stop them from trying if they are able and willing to accept the start up losses that most likely would be enormous. What happened to DHL is that they lost 600 million over a two year span did have the capital sources to ride it out But a better capitalized undertaking might make it.,The Fedex air fleet isn't going anywhere. It's what takes place on the ground in the years ahead is what will be subject to review and debate.At the same time however given that Trump has clearly over promised and appears likely to badly under deliver any plans for industry deregulation will likely be scrapped by the time his presidency has reached it's conclusion.
