Flyby,

Its my opinion that Arpey/ToHo cater to the demands of Big Brother (IAG.) IAG is financed by one of the biggest and most powerful financial institutions in the world, the Rothschild clan. They want AA to own NYC like BA owns Heathrow. I don't think Parker and Co have a choice in NOT to carrying on this plan. NYC simply represents too big of a market for AA to even be a distant second.

All IMHO of course.
