54:00 PB talks about safety audits and oversight of feeders by AA. Dances around whole "American Connection" issue. Lucky for him the Senator from AMR never heard of TSA.

65:10 Talking about pay issues at regonal airlines.

68:00 BS level spikes with question, "Why can't a major airline own a small airplane?"

70:30 BS++ About regional airline routes that can't support mainline aircraft (you know, like ORD-DCA, ORD-ATL, ORD-MSP, DFW-HOU, etc.)

83:50 They start talking about commuting.

88:00 This is where the subject of "crashpads" come up.

My favorite part...

92:38 Our Glorious Leader gives the Senators his opinion on commuting. With a smug little sneer he brags about how his ground employees are able to live in high-cost places like New York, Chicago and Los Angeles and "found a lifestyle to sustain themselves" and that "the commuting decision is a lifestyle decision"
