Future AMR/B6 timeline....
"TWA's sell out". Excuse me! Are you kidding me! -
Expat jobs fair
This is correct with the caveat that all these different Chinese carriers are very unique with their own cultures. Some have had expats for years and know how to deal with us. Others(WestAir) have no expats....yet. Great money but a complete unknown. WestAir is also a division of Hainan...- macdu

Airbus trepidation... convince me otherwise!
For full disclosure I did not write preceding posts. It was sent to me by a friend. I believe it is authored by a UAL check pilot. I have spent 7 years on the plane and it was a very insightful and educational piece. Hope you enjoy it, and the plane as much as I (did) as I am now on the 75/76:( -

AMR to make a hostile offer for LCC at 9.50 a share
During a 20 July earnings call to discuss the historical narrowbody order, American President Tom Horton stressed the financing requires minimal to no capital expenditure since the aircraft are being financed through operating leases. That will free up some money -

AA buying A320's
Do you know where I am? Or have been? Look at my avatar. I am taking a few months of r/r. -
What would you do?
Defer. Defer. Defer. Defer. Defer. You have 3 years to think about it right. -
AA buying A320's
I just got the recall call yesterday. I am deferring but it would be nice to go back to an airplane I have been on for the last 7 years instead of a 80. -
B6 and AA may get cozier
And of course in a future AA merger situation the TWA'ers get screwed big time. -
