New Airline?

[RP170]

What's sad is that they will have thousands of pilot applicants for a job that will last maybe 6 months. We are our own worst enemy.

Can't have scabs without a strike. No Lorenzo, no strike. Still kinda silly, though.

The airline may be new but the name has a long history of times of glory and times better off forgotten.

My comment was directed to the POS EAL 89 scabs that made a contribution to it's demise.

In a letter circulated to former Eastern Airlines employees, an investor group announced that they have “concluded a deal with the Eastern Airlines estate to acquire the name, trademarks and affiliate names (including Eastern Express and Eastern Shuttle) for the purpose of re-starting the airline as a scheduled airline.”
Ed Wegel, a veteran of the airline world and current CEO of Eastern Airlines, Inc., told former Eastern Airlines employees, “We have developed a business plan for the re-start of Eastern which leverages off of Eastern’s core strengths while using all of the lessons we have learned from all of the start up airlines and the restructuring of all of the legacy carriers over the past 18 years.”
