The APA asked for AMR to show them the options back in 2007 when they were working on a TA to provide a stipend to any Eagle CA's that left to go to AA.... one of the things the APA insisted on was seeing that the options actually still existed. The TA subsequently fell apart when AMR couldn't/wouldn't produce the options...
so, this is just more BS to keep more people fro quiting a sinking ship.
Another one of your misguided and error filled anti-Eagle rants. Eagle isn't anywhere CLOSE to "sinking". I know you have a lot of angry baggage you're dragging around about Eagle behind you, but your credibility would improve DRAMATICALLY if you concentrated on more fact and less emotion.
The 22 CRJ options DO exist and apparently Bombardier wants AMR Eagle to come up with 15% for financing. Not sure if that has happened yet, but some say yes and some say no. El Presidente wants them and has been trying to get that financing, but I'll believe it when I see it.
Now, with that corrected..............you're free to get back to your hobby of Eaglebashing.
