AA, thread got side tracked by someone coming into the tread talking about what they heard with a minor change as to what AA was going to do. And we don’t necessarily need to take seats out. Just one thing that may happen to help AA’s scope trouble, but there are other things that could be done to help with that to.

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.

United yanked someone else’s block hours (sounds like possibly Commutair’s; sorry to whoever was on the bad end of that) to double August’s schedule after discussions last month and Whiskey undowngraded 90+ captains. 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.

There isn’t enough flying to support 7 or 8 regional carriers . Not now and it won’t be for quite awhile .Unless Uncle Sam starts printing more money to give away, it will be financially impossible for all of these companies to survive .

Unless you own/control the regional you’re trying to mothball.

a contract is only worthwhile if you can fund and survive a lawsuit
