If the MEC signs another no strike clause in our contract, AMR has no reason to. The disruptions as people want to talk about as reason AMR want to get rid of AE is just a negotiation ploy. AMR want a contract with AE done before we are in section 6 negotiations in 2013 when our contract is up. AMR wants it done outside section 6 and under our current contract rules which favor AMR.

Sell, spinoff AE for all I care. The end result will be a bankrupt AA going to court with BK paper work.. AA reminds me more day by day of PAN AM in there last years. AMR will be getting rid of GA and replacing with TH. When that is done, 6 mos later AA will be filing for BK.

Spin off AE, we can buy there routes and aircraft. Oh thats right, they have sold almost all a/c and international and domestic slots for money and are leasing all those same items back.

If I close my eyes, I see Lorenzo.

AMR will sell all AA routes and A/C to Eagle ?

Just out of curiousity, what do you think you can hold when the big move is made ?

I can't wait to see the 777 painted in Eagle colors and the senior F/O's (3rd year) going for the bid, especially with the $5/hour override over the EMB/CRJ.

Most awesome.

Off topic slightly, but has anyone been to Kingman, AZ? Most or all of those XJT aircraft were parked there at one point. It was an impressive and depressing sight.

Yeah, great is it not? What you dont think the scenario can be played. Then you are dreaming for that AA job at someone elses expense. Does not mean I like it, but it is plausible.
