On the only week there that doesn't have a stack of costs for a new lease nor half a million worth of buying slots, you're roughly breaking even. Add more planes, and you'll probably make a profit. You're paying lots extra in maintenance because your only 2 planes are from different fleets (1 707, 1 727). You're paying extra in marketing and staff costs because you're undersupplying 5 separate routes instead of fully supplying two. Get more planes of the same two fleets as you already have, stick them on the routes you already fly, and you should see revenue increase while costs stay about the same, which means profit.
