Default First Frontier, now Midwest. What's the deal?

RAH's planned acquistition of both Midwest and Frontier is undoubtedly huge, but what's the bigger picture? Has BB very quickly created his own airline, capable of competing with anybody else? I wonder how this fits into the Hawaiian operation?

Call it a shot in the dark here, but I wouldn't doubt some sort of deal with Alaskan or JetBlue in the future. Not to stir the pot, that's not my intention, but with two airlines being acquired in two days, something big is going down.

AGAIN, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY ZERO DISRESPECT HERE. Just trying to read the quarterback (BB) and his gameplan.

I would guess Delta, United, and USAir, with contributions from AA and Continental.
