It actually costs us less to keep them alive than kill them. Plus they get out of their punishment easily. That shows the silliness of the US criminal system. What drives up the costs is all the legal challenges and endless appeals. Tighten up the appeals process down to just 1 and have the executi...

Jump to postI think it is time for Trump to fire Dr. Fauci. He seems to be holding the country back and is putting a lot of false information out to inflate information. Trump is trying hard to restart our economy and keep the country going but Fauci and the media seem to want to hold things down.

Jump to postThis conversation is so tiring. They are not going to add seatback IFE. And they're definitely not going to be doing it during a global recession and pandemic while they're losing tens of millions of dollars daily. AA already has seatback video across a large part of the domestic fleet. It’s not ab...

AA does not have the money now to go back and buy new seats and reconfigure airplanes back. Thats JUST the 737s. The LUS airplanes never had the IFE, so again a...

If AA choses to go this route they should do it sooner than later while they have cash and hand, and can self finance like they did before. DIP financing will likely be difficult to come by and a DIP may see more value in liquidated assests.
