FWAAA is absolutely right; I would add that this is hypocrisy on a large scale.
The more I read about Captain Hill, the more it seems clear that he wants to force American down the road recently traveled by Delta, Northwest, United and US Airways: chapter 11.
Unless the Hills and Gladings of AA's organized labor drop the bully act and start making serious gestures toward working collaboratively with management, I don't see how AA can remain competitive.
This has to be one of the most naive posts I've ever read on this board.
