The goal is to spin off and pick up contract flying from other airlines, not just AA. We would also be released from our 70 seat scope...that is the whole point. If we are not owned by AMR anymore than we are not limited in any kind of scope clause, even if they do hire us to do their flying. BTW: Republic does flying for AMR as well under the American Connection brand in case you didn't know.
What part of that is so difficult to understand? If you think Eagle is going to target Republic by flying 50 and 70 seat jets for the next 20 years you are the one who is dreaming.
O
I have a good idea what was said. My guess is it was the same stuff said in 06 and 08.
No airline flying for AMR can fly planes bigger then 50 seats.
RAH dose AEX flying under the CHQ certificate that certificate only has 140/145 on it.
Also if (and it is a big if) we are divestiture (I don't think we are going to be) we all will be out of jobs in the next 7-10 years.
