Yeah. exactly.. thanks for the sarcasm I forgot, every post on apc comes from a very realiable source....

maybe you should hit your back button on your browser, click on the major section, and read the possible merger between aa/usair.. maybe that the was the rumor they were talking about.

if reliable sources are divulged, then soon there will not be any sources. a little wisdom goes a long way.

That's part of the AMR plan to spread rumors.

On the last ALPA teleconference meeting they talked about the company moving 2 ATRs from DFW to MIA, and that matches with all the increased MIA ATR flying recently announced (bahamas stuff) until a later date when the DFW MTX and flight crews got used to the ATRs at which point the company would move back 2 ATRs to DFW.

I wouldnt be surprised if they needed 1-2 more ATRs from SJU to cover the MIA flying, so that makes sense, along with the increases in MIA flying (seems like AMR is focusing on MIA pretty hard)

I find it hard to believe the CRJs will be coming before APA signs a contract, but if/when they come you can bet on parking the rest of the E135s.

I hope for all the 71 furloughees that recalls begin soon, fingers crossed on that one!
