. I do enjoy the discourse that takes place here. My predictions are these:
1. The company will in fact retain the exclusivity period and will present a POR that will be accepted by the majority of creditors.
Possible. But those creditors will have to plan on AA coming out of BK with the pilots at least (and likely the F/A's and FSC's/mechanics) with no labor contracts and operating under a chaotic term sheet environment. VERY unstable business plan for a creditor, if you ask me.

While they truly have no interest in spending the next 10-15 years in court debating seniority integration issues, they do want to better the deal. I'm all for that if it results in a stronger and more competitive AA!
How long has the current managment sold out ALL the employees (and creditors and shareholders) ?

4. I do believe Mr. Parker alternate POR when presented this fall will be rejected by the majority of the creditors committee. See my "house of cards" comment above.
Well............here we are AGAIN, Tom. I will make my
4TH REQUEST that you explain how and why AMR's business plan for the future is superior to what U might offer. Specifically, what "fake promises" are you referring to and why those fake promises are inferior to can kicking and limping along ?

Who's been selling YOU this fake promise, Tom ?

No one is trying to "cow" you Tom, only highlighting what the OVERWHELMING majority of AA pilots believe. The "No Confidence" petition proves that. The only prediction I'll make here is that if one day the pilots of this airline ever have the right to strike, you'll be the first to cross the picket line. In spirit, you already have.

Seems many outside sources don't think it's such a fantasy. In fact, I hear things might be taking place to further it along the street of reality.
