AMT's have been bailing out the Airlines since the 80's, if the CEO's can pay the pilots the way they do, maybe they should get together and raise fares. If ANY company cannot manage to make a buck on the service they provide, they should shut the doors. Butch > If the unions are standing in the way of United's recovery then the > unions have to go.
