But I 100% could have been misinformed on that.

AA scope, unlike UA is not weight related.

Sorry for the dumb question but are we talking about taking seats out of YV 900s to fly for UAX? Or we need seats out to continue flying for AA? |

You put too much faith in those people in atw.
One day you’ll show up and the doors in atw will be chained up , don’t put a 9mm to your head and pull the trigger . |

Mate, it's a job, not my life. I'm gonna be sad if it closes, but there'll be other jobs after the recovery. I'm just saying that people have been thinking AWAC has been circling the drain for decades now. Doesn't mean it's happening now.
I Hope I’m wrong but numbers don’t lie. |

Doesn’t sound like they’re ready to throw Whiskey away. Not to say those three won’t have the lion’s share of the flying but it’s not all doom and gloom.

Exactly, just because we're not coming ahead at the front doesn't mean we're done for. The company is continuing to invest into the 700s. They wouldn't be doing that if they were expecting the company to die.
Something has to give , thats all I’m saying . |
