FIFY
You might recall the government let the Lehman Brothers go under before Merrill Lynch, AIG, Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, HBOS, Royal Bank of Scotland, Bradford & Bingley, Fortis, Hypo and Alliance & Leicester all came within a whisker of doing so and had to be rescued.

Don’t bet they’ve learned their lesson.

No,I’m not expecting any major airline to go Chapter 7, but the government allowing one to go Chapter 11, pour encourager les autres before bailing them out, is entirely a possibility.
