You would be spot on.....This wouldn't have anything to do with CAL's 'close' relationship with Boeing at that time would it?? (rhetorical BTW).

Let's see....Gordon is VP with Boeing 1988-1994, then jumps over to CAL to become CEO from 1994-2004. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Bethune


Just the facts.
As I recall the only aircraft Lorenzo brought over from Eastern was the A360--the ones Borman leased for $1 from Airbus back in the day. Useless ramp queen, kinda like Frank himself.
