Your thoughts on the future of American and US Airways

[General Lee]

Green light on all items. Waiting for the DOJ.

Uh, really? Green light? Doesn't sound like it from this quote from a Reuters article:


"But Lane cited "lingering doubts" about the benefits of approving a bankruptcy plan before the antitrust issue is resolved. "What would be the point of entering a confirmation order ... if, in fact, there's a lot more work to be done?" he said."


Bye Bye---General Lee

After reading the latest articles and opinions, I agree it will move forward but with more concessions (including DCA slots). It is a negotiation at this point.

Horton may not get his full $20 million that he earned by driving AA into the ground.

Uh-oh. Lorenzo is in favor of the merger. :erm:

Somebody beat me with a tire iron- Cant say I like his introduction, but I don't disagree w/ anything Lorenzo said

Many airline employees believed him years ago, and they were subsequently beaten with a tire iron. If he announces the time of day, and your watch is in agreement, throw away the watch.

Stephen Bradford and Mike Cleary along with their east enablers have had a far worse impact on the pilot profession than Lorenzo ever did.

His worst days were between roughly 1983 and 1990 - 7 years. The east has dragged down the market rate for pilots since 2004 - 9 years and counting during a period where pilots had greater negotiating leverage than ever.

All squandered by a few immature, shortsighted morons and those who elected them.

Dude WTF are you talking about? I get it your pain as the victim is really really bad. I feel really sorry for you. Really.

I remember flying the C-141 all over the world and nearly every county I went to had a "No Lorenzo" sticker affixed to the inside of the urinal, compliments of the airline pilots that were also Air Force Reserve C-141 pilots ( I cannot admit to adding to the number of ubiquitous stickers).

Until you cover all the Lorenzo stickers with "No Bradford, Cleary stickers then hold your claim in your pocket for later.

And now - anybody care to debate what he said in the posted video-

Stickers, eh? Maybe you should put down the shovel and stop digging kid.

Ask anyone who has had to try and negotiate a contract at any major or national airline in the past 9 years what they think of the weak, self-serving and shortsighted east pilots who cling to LOA93 out of fear of what Cleary and Bradford sold them. The east pilot's arrogance is epic and exceeded only by their reputation in the industry for exactly who and what they are - the embodiment of Lorenzo's ideals.

A little more time in the industry and you may begin to get it, but selfishness is never highly prized or rewarded.
