Could Don Carty & Bill Compton pass a polygraph test regarding AA''s purchase of TWA?

[AAplanesareold]

Would they have the moral courage to actually undergo such testing? Would they clear up this mystery, once and for all? Would they agree to jail time for lying under oath?

Nah. They are both laughing at all of the laid off TWA workers, over margaritas somewhere in Cancun.

It''s pretty sad to see what this industry has come down too.

I believe they will be required to provide testimony at the Federal Court level and will either be deposed or asked (required) to testify.

This isn't a witch hunt but, I hope they both burn at the stake!

But a good lie will keep you out of trouble in the first place.

That and a bunch of money for political contributions!

Oh wait, Don Carty already did that. No wonder his employees trusted him so much!

Go big red!

I have to generally agree, polygraphs are somewhat unreliable. It also depends heavily on the skill of the examiner and the questions s/he asks.

One thing I've never figured out is why Americans are willing to put so much faith in the polygraph. Polygraph tests have been shown to have high instances of false-negatives and false-positives. It is disturbing that so many people in this country see this method of truth discernment as infallible.

Carty already spoke back in 1/01 and 2/01 and AMR also spoke. It was called the ASSEST PURCHASE AGREEMENT. I think Compton and Carty agreed to it in court.

Seems like AA broke it. "We will hire the TWA employees". Does that sound like something we all heard even on TV.

Can any of the AA employees explain how AA upheld that agreement when AA hires mechanics off the street while TWA mechanics remained on lay off. Please explain how AA kept that agreement when the laid off TWA mechanics went and applied for the jobs and were told that they WOULD NOT BE HIRED BECAUSE THEY WERE TWA EMPLOYEES. Sounds like they broke it.

Seems like the FEDS should look into this like Moncia and our ex president.

The polygraph is fairly worthless, which is why most courts won't accept them or even allow their mention.

A good liar believes his or her own lie so vehemently, that they can lie on the poly and come out smelling like a rose.
