If AMR is serious about innovating then this should be their first step. Simple, streamlined, efficient operations.

AMR is looking at the future the same way they've acted in the past...............and why not ?
It's worked pretty well from a labor standpoint and that is where they believe their best bet for future competivness and profitability lies. AMR has had the same scope issues for 2 decades, so nothing is new of late. Ultimately we're talking about 100 or so Eagle pilots (the 50% or so who are still actually interested in flowing) moving up to AA at some point under defined criteria.
IMO, AMR has no interest in making any earth shattering logisical labor alterations over 100 piddly little Eagle pilots. They wont do it for 2000 furloughed mainline pilots either.
Alignment of labor hurts them more than helps them in their eyes...............but it's certainly a pleasurable fantasy for many an Eagle pilot.
