You got it. The fAA people have a real awakening coming.

Especially the pilots. The fAA pilots (and other labor groups) were so desperate to get rid of Horton, they have no idea what they just got themselves into.

I'm sure the fAA people will quickly catch on to the "aw shucks" act and have some buyer's remorse.

Although, to Parker's credit: he makes money, gets good margins, and can sweet talk investors into giving us money at good rates. All good traits to have in a chief executive.

I was halfway listening to the analyst conference call and thought I caught Kirby say that they would be reconfiguring the AA aircraft. I'm assuming it's for more people, waiting for the transcript.

With the US merger our A321s went from 169(24 first and a coat closet) to 187 now. The A330 used to be a comfortable airplane even in coach, now it's miserable towards the tail.

Our FF's were p.o.ed. A lot left. The company did figure out the cut too much and added back. I hope they realize that they have to keep the high dollar guys happy this time.
