And a hypothetical 787 acquisition is irrelevant as it wasn’t expected and both sides could play that game.
And hypothetical business or economic losses that would cause a loss of 500 pilots and lead to furloughs are similarly ridiculous. One could as easily assume that the incorporation of the VX aircraft and personnel will be wildly successful and would actually LEAD to the acquisition of all those 787s that - absent this merger - would have never happened.
Or that,lacking any scope whatsoever, AAG will farm 90% of the business out to Horizon, with them flying MRJs and ERJs at regional wages while they furlough mainline pilots.
You can suppose damn near any scenario.
