TSA does have good credit and good relations with AA but buying Eagle would be too big of a move and that's not how TSA does business. We're probably looking at some of the assets just like most other regionals I would imagine are. I know some of us that live out West sure wouldn't mind flying the LAX ERJ operation.

this is like comparing the 1lb coconut to the 1oz swallow, the 1 oz swallow can't carry a 1lb coconut, but maybe there are 2 swallows...

African or European?

Seriously. Hulas likes his money. He won't spend that much money to buy a bunch of planes and pilots making that kind of money. Won't happen.

As long as he keeps Eagle on a separate certificate with a different website, he can start them all over at the bottom again. I think we've proved ALPA will roll over on that one.

I heard that compass is going to buy republic........ and pinnacle is going to buy commair........and PSA is going to buy TSA to make PTSA...... and skywest is going to buy frontier. That is just the word on the street or at least that is what all the pre-privates are saying at the flight school.

I won't speculate on this rumor nor do I have a business mind. However, situations like this has happened before. i.e. Mega Corporation wants to unload a division. Mega Corporation loans money to Mom and Pop Co to buy the division that Megacorp wants to unload. Mom and Pop Co has a certain amount of time to make it profitable or attain a certain level of revenue as a condition of the loan. If they fail, Megacorp takes it all.
