AWA had 18 mio. left. They had no credit.

USAir probably didn't have 18 days left. It doesn't matter how long AWA could have carried on alone; we already know USAir couldn't carry on at all. That's the point you intentionally keep missing.
 
Both sides better come to some sort of common ground or this is going to sink the whole ship. If UAL/CAL goes through, you guys are going to start a slide that cannot be reversed.
 
PHX and LAS have shrunk. Westies are now flying 24% orig. EAST routes. These routes were not flown prior to the merger. These are routes like PHL and CLT to SAN, SEA, SFO, LAX etc

East only flying 4% of former orig. West routes. So, lots of jobs have gone to West pilots, while the EAST shrunk to its min fleet. The so called jobs Westies brought to the merger were worthless and Westies are gaining flying at the expense of orig. East jobs. 24%! Straight from DP.Westies stealing East jobs and loving it. The greed is outrageous.

What concept do you have of reality? West nor East pilots don't control the routes management gives to either pilot group.

Actually, Useless Crashways didn't have 5 days left......

Acquisition was supposed to take place October 1, 2005, but Crashways couldn't even make payroll. Had to bump acquisition up to Sept 26, 2005 so Crashways wouldn't liquidate.

How bout them apples, McDooshbag?

:laugh:
 
An easy question for MCDU (or any US Air East Pilot who had a family to support with their AAA paychecks):

If you had some magical unicorn power to kill the AWA/AAA merger in 2005, and let AWA and AAA continue on their separate ways, would you? Yes or No??

For this question only, just assume that some people, like you, can be gifted with such a power.
 
We wanted to kill the merger, but we had no power because of the bankrpucy . We *east" were ready to emerge from bankruptcy and move forward with building a stronger airline, but Parker convinced the judge to take our careers away from us. Thats how we ended up with Nicolau, the largest travesty in our profession. the rest is history.

Thats some funny $hit.....step away from the bong.
 
St.Nick-

I can't even comment on your statement, I would just be spinning my wheels. I guess that I just need to come to terms with the fact that human beings often let emotion get in the way of rational thought.

At least we have a [mostly] rational judicial system to help us out, even if it is a slow process.

I heard that beating a dead horse only means your beating a dead horse!

Now, that's funny.
 
Ever notice these east/west threads always follow the same flow? First McDon't creates another flame starter. We all beat his a$$. Then the Nic award is reviewed for the millionith time. Then finally some lame smuck mentions national seniority list.

Retarded or Senile? Both!
