Gangwal now on the B.O.D.
Are we trying to speed this place into total train wreck? Why not just light the bank on fire and file BK already? I have more faith in an angry bull in a china shop with Johnny Knoxville taunting it than this guy running 'Airport City'

This appointment is yet another gut punch for SWA labor. Nothing like having a guy who has hurt thousands of US pilot careers in charge of your bosses.

Agreed, and yet another reason I am glad we got the contract done when we did. I cringe to think what things would be like if it took another month or two.

Things to expect from Gangwal (after all, he is Stephen Wolf's protege):
I). A bankruptcy filing to abrogate contracts.
II). A new CEO with an entirely new C-Suite.
III). Industry-standard GDS/Flight Planning & Dispatch/Crew Scheduling Technology
IV). The introduction of the Airbus narrowbody.
Considering that Stephen Wolf and his wife have been retained as consultants by Elliott - get ready for the ride of your lives.
