Court offering thirty cents on the dollar and planes worth forty ... take the money. Court offering ten and planes worth 50? Take the planes and flip them to someone for twenty

IIRC pay rates actually went up slightly (like 3%) but pay banding came into effect offsetting that, 767 was banded down to 757 rates, 737 banded down to MD80 rates. but work rules, average day, SCOPE, etc. were all gutted.

It's nice to read the opinion of someone who isn't shorting us

You gotta be realistic. Who needs the airplanes? Nobody.

If it looks like AA will go into bankruptcy and lien holders will take a haircut, sharks may buy up that debt for pennies on the dollar. They then walk into court and grab every asset they can knowing that in a year or two they will likely triple their investment. There are so many variables that anyone who claims to know how this mess shakes out is full of crap. Hopefully, within two years all of your furloughs have been recalled and everyone is riding the retirement wave seniority elevator again.

People can make guesses, but the reality is whatever the company proposes and whatever is agreed to in bankruptcy court.
Everything from no change to full abolishing the program, and everything in between are on the table.
