Bloomberg: AMR 737's

[SkiFishFly]

Buy AirTran, that gives AMR 100 737's and a bunch of 717's (same type rating as the DC-9-80) and a bunch of gates in ATL. The 717's are new and can serve the short haul market while the 737 helps with the longer stages, longer than the MD-80 served. This would take care of 200 of the 300 airplane problem and add the 15-18 month cut in the production line. Kick this one around. Stranger things have happened.

P.S. Mgmt doesn't care what pilots think or about how this will impact their careers.

Oh god please don't do that!!!
