Oh come on now.. 737 is a fun airplane to fly. Can’t blame him for not wanting to commute.

737 is like you never left the CRJ only with more switches.

Not a PSA guy. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Finally someone mentioned the elephant in the room! It makes sense to me that hey, go big or go home can actually be a corporate philosophy It may be known that if AA doesn't have a miraculous recovery then it's BK city anyway, so might as well get it over with this year. I don't see how Delta and United can compete with an American who went from zero to hero via chapter 11, thus forcing them into a reorganization also.... Feel free to provide feedback on this hypothesis.

I mean, geez, Bankruptcy law firms even use American's BK as an advertisement for how awesome BK can be....

Ah yes, the classic "Gotta live in base, son" statement. Best seats (excluding the j/s) for commuting were on the 190. The weirdest j/s had the Maddog, I always felt that someone was going to examine your testicles after you put your feet on those two support thingies.

I just let my legs fall asleep instead of using the stirrups on the 80. It just felt weird using those things.
