My question, is there some legal copy right? Or the the Eagle name a registered trademark with AMR.
AMR owns the name and can do what they please with it. This is, IMO, the big slap in the face part. They state they'll use "the stronger American Eagle" name. But WE are that name.

This is virtually no different than if they chose to call all codeshare flights "American Airlines" and renamed current AA and then allowed them to be one of many who operate as "American Airlines".

And THAT is EXACTLY what AMR would do if they could figure out a way.

....and ironically, guess who would be one of their choices if they did think they could get away with that.

Later today, we will begin the process of recalling all of our furloughed pilots, and we anticipate hiring pilots soon. We currently are hiring flight attendants, mechanics and hundreds of ground employees needed to staff the new ground handling contracts.
Would I have to go through the full training again if I accepted the recall?

You know regionals have sunk to a new low when they will not only impersonate mainline carriers; but now they'll impersonate another regional...

simply amazing.
