Did a Major Airline 747-400 Captain back over your dog in your driveway after taking your wife for a spin once? If not what is your problem?
Why did National just shut down? High crew salaries? What about Midway?
At American airlines, cockpit salaries and benefits are around 1.5 billion a year. AA lost about a billion in the last 3 months alone. do the math for the group.
Another example at AA. 75 FK100's are effectively getting thrown away at around 25 million or more each. Most are less than 10 years old. $1.9 billion at least. The MD11 was another smooth purchase, but they got some value dumping them to FeDex.
Keep kicking tires around Marana and Mojave while the dreams of being an airline tycoon dance in your head. You might get lucky on some scam, but you won't get anywhere based on what we've seen here.
