Oh, if you want to see bankruptcy payrates, look at USAirways and United. Guys like Carl are paid $35 bucks an hour more than their peer on the same airplane at UAL, and that's without any international override. Oh, and Carl's 23 years of pension are still there, unlike the UAL guy.
Guys like Carl are paid $80,000 less than an average SWA captain flying a domestic 737. But thanks for being consistent in stating the MEC's views on only comparing us to UAL and LCC etc., while purposefully ignoring SWA, FDX and UPS.

ALPA has been in charge of AMR's negotiations for over a year, now they are bankrupt. See a pattern?
