JMHO, and I've been away from them for four years, but I don't think the future is very bright.

The recent announcement about possibly/probably selling the SFO maintenance base will be followed, IMO, be a sale of the Denver flight training center. To me, if the maintenance center gets sold, the training center is an almost certainty.

I think UAL is on it's way to becoming a "virtual airline".

Again, it's just my opinion.
