staple lcc - labor problem solved -just kidding

You are more right than you know, those easties are that stupid, the apa would roll them with ease.

I can't believe that Arpey is stupid enough to step into that pile of festering crap called LCC. If he want's to kill American Airlines, that's one way to do it.

LCC has only a few bits and pieces that are of any value. AA does not need a totally disfunctional pilot group that makes the APA look like a model union, an incompatible fleet, bad overlap on the very few international routes that LCC flies, and zero Pacific, which AA actually needs.

In the famous words of Forest Gump...

"Stupid is as Stupid does". You know as well a I do that our industry has an incredible history of "stupid stunts".... Take logic and reason out of the equation.

AA

I don't see aa/lcc happening, nothing matches the logical merge ual/lcc, co and aa are holding their own and a merger won't help them, now ual close to bk with compatible fleets and hubs with lcc it's a matter of time and tilton coming to the realization he can't right the ship. You heard it here first.

That would make more sense, it just seems Doug P has been see in DFW lately. Would like to know why.

AA

I heard that its because Arpey wants Sully.

My guess is that it involved a lot of time on his knees begging...............Parker's probably so desperate, he's willing to agree to almost anything.

The big tunas at CP, might find a tidbit or two out of it to nibble on, but lets hope they don't get stoned on any wild ideas.

the rumor coming from alot of airways guys is that the east and west will be split and sold off to CAL and AMR. I cant remember who gets the east or the west. If AMR really wants Airways, they should just wait a year or so and buy their assets in bankruptcy court.

All of AE cp's where down in DFW for mtg's this week too.
