Personally I don't see it. AA is not ready to take over another airline. I could really only see F9 merging with someone like B6. I think those to would be happy together. AA and F9 mix like oil and water. AA has sworn to be all Boeing, and except for the A300s, they are. They fly 737s and MD-80s, F9 has A319s and A318s. That just makes no sense
