  1. How is everyone playing the airline merger rumors? It looks like industry wide consolidation will happen at some point. I think the best deal would be btwn United and Continental...what are some thoughts?
     
  2. I don't know, but I do know only an insane fund or other airline would assume American Airline's balance sheet.

    It's beyond terrible.

    20 billion in long term debt.
     
  3. a friend of mine called CALwhen it was trading under 20
    1 and half years ago
    and told my other buddies to buy in
    i think collective stake was around 50K shars under 20 bucks
    if the merger goes thru see ya all at 60. but legal affair would be a biatch
