    New ATA/North American/World Forum

    ATA, North American and World are about to get whipsawed against each other in my opinion. These three airlines need a place to discuss and work together and this is not the place, wouldn't you agree. This new forum is non-profit, closed for only the three airlines and not competing with...

    Has the US presence in Iraq created terrorists.

I often hear from my liberal friends that the US is the cause for terror in the world and if we pulled out of Iraq there would be more peace around the world.

    Is Fuel Hedging Cheating?

    Congrats to SWA and CAL for your profitable quarters! Why do so many on this board think that fuel hedging is cheating regarding profits that SWA churns out? Fuel Hedging is a strategy used just like any other strategy that their business plan calls for. Good Management not cheating. I also...

    A question for SWA pilots.

    We've been hearing about this International plan for 08 or 09 a lot lately. Is this the usual tactic by your management to talk about future growth this far out. I usually don't hear about SWA plans until only a few months before their strike. I'm thinking the strategy is to see International...

    C-8 and Saab2000

    Hello, I'm new to this site and just love it! I fly for ATA and I've been hearing a lot about C-8 getting Saab2000s. I think that C-8 really does need some heavier lift and I think this would be very positive. By the way, I have flown with numerous C-8 pilots that have came over to ATA and...
