If BB wants to run a major airline he needs to pick a name, paint the planes the same color and get on with business. My opinion is he is quite happy orchestrating the chaos between pilot groups and reaping the benefits.
JO would be proud.
How long do you think it will be before the mainline carriers decide to stop feeding their now direct competition....
Delta tried to dump Mesa/Freedom and was told by a judge that there had been no substantial change in their business relationship to warrant a sanctioned breech/termination of their contract....
since BB aquired these large plane operators, RAH has now become direct competition, and not just a subcontractor feed provider. You may expect that once RAH has aquired the new equipment, several of the mainline companies will sue for contract termination on the basis of change of business relationship... RAH defaults, and everybody splits up the chunks of it they want. Meanwhile, BB rapes the place for all he can, and then sells it off like he did with BizEx to AMR.
