Now that AMR is one step closer to BK how attractive do they look now? I would expect 20%-30% capacity cut and all pilots taking a large pay cut. What's interesting is now that Eagle is on it's own I wonder how easy a BK court can trow out the exclusive contract and put lift up for bid. I would expect job security for a new hire nonresistance if BK is to be filed. With Eagle flying equipment thats obsolete I would expect TSA and others to to be winners of AMR lift.
First, Eagle has not been spun off or sold. AMR has been selling or spinning eagle everytime they were in contract talks. So, best advice is to wait until they actually do something instead if simply threatening.
Second, last I checked there is no exclusive contract with eagle from AMR. in fact, until and if they are separated they dint even have more than a one page contract... which says they do what AA/AMR says.
Third, Obsolete aurcraft according to who? That idiot Boyd?? A wise man once said, nobody ever went broke flying too small am airplane. The same can't be said for too large an airplane.
Fourth, AMR's theoretical plan is to transfer the planes to AA along with the majority of the debts by buying them from Eagle.... So, eagle gets a pile if cash and can buy what they want.
