Dave's Message

How can you tell when Dave the New Lorenzo is being honest?

--Frankly I assume he is always lying and I try to figure out the real truth for myself.
 
My question is why is the bankruptcy option wayy farr off the horizon if the company claims that the next 30 to 90 days are critical to USAIRWAYS' survival???

The ATSB loan covenants say we can't file for bankruptcy.

Negative?
Since when does pointing out that "the next thirty to ninety days" aren't critical, negative?

Not that they aren't important, mind you. It's just that if contracts are honored, and the business is run, the company certainly won't fold.
 
Absolutely classic. Scare the employees into more and more concessions. Need to keep an eye on the backdoor of Crystal City. Bet there's a lot of loot going out that way. Sounds like a setup to blame failure on the employees.
 
The next 30 to 90 days is critical because without new labor accords the S&P credit rating could drop to C+. If that occurs, then GECAS will pull the MDA RJ financing and we could then likely fall into default of the ATSB loan -- without the MDA RJ revenue.

If that occurs there will be additional asset sales, which is why Siegel reiterated that the airline is considering selling assets, but he said: "While everything is on the table, it is not inevitable that the company will have to spin or sell assets off." Further, Siegel said, he doesn't see another bankruptcy filing from US Airways "in any kind of relevant time horizon."

Without labor accords the company will not enter bankruptcy, it will just sell chunks of the company to protect Bronner's investment and prevent a default on the loan guarantee, which could provide an involuntary bankruptcy filing where Bronner would lose about $650 million.

As I have said countless times before, if US Airways can stabilize its finances and Untied will emerge there will be a corporate combination.

I was thinking that too.

We have been hearing the "30 to 90 days are critical" time frame for at least 30 days now.

So aren't we down to 0 to 60 days?

Get your resumes in order, because the IAM Mechanic and Related will not open thier contract.

Plus thru two rounds of concessions Dave told us this is all he needs, so what he did not get in negotiations he and his management team tried to steal.

The man can't be trusted.
