When he asked what I thought, I couldn't help but laugh. He got p****d and asked why I laughed. Told him it was quite the funny rumor. What I really wanted to say is their pilot group is the last thing we need. Fortunately, rumors are like A**h***s, everyone has got one! Joker |

So you're hypothisizing that AMR is buying U almost STRICTLY for their feeders ?
Buy U mainline assets and merge that into AA mainline (AA certificate) and sell Eagle to U to operate an independant domestic carrier operating large RJ's on the U certificate (maybe run by Parker) ? Hmmmmmm............................ I would think most of U mainline would likely disappear over a few years along with most of their uncompatable aircraft and the surviving feeders under U (those with larger RJ's) would merge together (perhaps with Eagle) to expand into a seperate domestic carrier with hundreds of E-190 type aircraft. AA becomes a smaller (then post U merger) International, transcon, long range domestic and "special market" player and U becomes a short/medium and some long range domestic behemoth with wildly profitable 100-seaters ? In theory, I can see how that would make AMR drool as that way AMR controls both carriers seperately and reaps the rewards for domination and competitivness in both markets, but I'm not sure what the obstacles are ? |

Yawn... |
I wouldn't be surprised on that one

He would only want the A320s and E190s and tie them into the F9/YX network. |

I don't think this is what texas was saying at all. An example is Mesa. Mesa opperates CRJ-900 aircraft for US Airways but the contract they run on was signed between Mesa and America West. So ((((IF)))) AA/US would happen AA might beable to have RAH and Mesa opperate the 90 seat aircraft under the contract they signed with US/AW.
AMR is anything but dumb (well usually). My guess is AMR will join the rest of the crowd and avoid Mesa like a scorching case of herpes. |
