Realistically, an AA Chapter 7 scenario isnt as likely as a full blown AA/BA merger in my opinion (despite the current laws). If AA was really in the "Oh poop, we are F-ed" mode then I could see BA+TPG making some sort of cash injunction to save the company from Ch7 at the least.

The dreams of DAL buying MIA/DFW and UAL taking ORD are freakin nonsense. AA being parted out and sold would be the END of the oneworld alliance. None of the core oneworld members would let that happen (except maybe Cathay because they like being aloof).
