There is bonkers now, and then there is true bonkers. Enough happens and true bonkers will happen IMO, I saw it at United in 2000. The fact is will happen naturally and gross root with noone to hold accountable is what will make it interesting. If that happens a USAIR deal is 99.99%.
What I want to see is if AMR will trickle all the terms of the 1113 mixed with the LBFO over 18 months, and you guys wont react to it to the level that will accomplish a goal.
That would mean that the long-term creditors and future IPO investors will have to shoot craps on an AA that isn't in chapter 11. That's a hell of a crap game, especially with no UCC or BK judge. Many here are perfectly willing to kick this can past the chapter 11 deadline of next May and see what happens next summer, if that is the UCC's desire.
At that point, the attrition I expect to see alone would be catastrophic for a tender philly of an airline just out of BK and operationally collapsing at the starting gate. It is "uncharted territory" and no one can predict the sudden twists and turns of that territory.
Will Blue Horeshoe love AA in that circumstance next July ?
If the LBFO is indeed the LBFO then we will find out, unless the three teddy bears Parker has look better.
