Why "unfortunately"?
I am interested because I have been involved in mergers (non-airline - business and a non-profit) and I have a grasp of the operation difficulties these can create...and these are in things that do not have the capacity of wrecks and people dying. It always made me wonder about how this can be accomplished safely and in an efficient manner.
How did the TWA guys react to AA procedures, etc? Did they find the training more vigorous or less? Do the vanquished carriers have any input?
