They argue TTA is the lowest cost local carrier in the Southwest and promise a detailed brief by the May 13 deadline. CAB Examiner Brya n noted the government cost for local service via Fort Worth and other West Texas towns, a route Alpine would lose if Pioneer Continental operated. Trans-Texas cites seven years of service in West Texas and its efforts to raise quality, while Bryan acknowledged the vast distances and isolated cities served and the substantial contribution of Trans-Texas to regional transport.
