"America West's 2005 purchase of US Airways" .........? Exactly how much money did Doogie and Scotch come up with to "Purchase" USAirways? ZERO..ZILCH..NADA...so if they had no money and they didn't spend a dime then how did they buy USAirways?...They didn't! USAirways then CEO Bruce Lakefield went to Wall Street and arranged for ALL as in 100% of the total financing to MERGE the two carriers..I say again MERGE.. not buy/purchase. Then handed the whole mess over to Doogie and his imcompetent management team because in his own words "all I want to do is go home to RSW and PLAY GOLF!" Sorry for the rant but I'm sick of the press and the Cacti spewing and misconstruing the TRUTH! This was a merger period!
