Not sure what you mean. Wasn't he already on the negotiating committee before he became MEC chairman?

Pull your tinfoil hat tighter, grab a DUIdont know, and a restraining order against your Rep with Audi2000. That's the ticket!

BWI will have international flights.

Whatever happened to the new sim for DFW?

Again look at what AirTran was that will be us people. You think BF is creative enough to pull off something new? No! Tranny was profitable so he will do what worked. Then we merge with JetBlue

That's a relief. I did not realize that. I was under the impression that it came out of the dues money. If the company is paying, then we should go hire the best lawyers around.

We don't go out and find our own.

And if you had no idea where the money was coming from where did you get $780k? Nothing you are saying makes sense.
