Im 100% sure CDOs will be in C2015.

It means they calculated the recovery based on a stock price in the teens.
What's it today? Right around $40? Ouch.
The hits just keep on comin' for us deadzoners.

I know there are still a few days before the AE bid closes, but I'm a low 11,XXX seniority # and there are only 17 pilots senior to me with a bid in for NYC717A. At this rate we might have 717 street Captains.

So-so news: wouldn't have done that if we were planning on dumping the entire fleet in the near term.
Also, the first 3 that are leaving this month are leased and will be returned to the lessor. The last of the four (ship 6301) is owned by Delta and will be sent to the desert, but preserved and covered for possible re-introduction.
That's all I know.

Boo, hiss.
