I'm beginning to see a trend here.
FA007 makes stock calls only when an airline gravitates towards bankruptcy.
He's done it with his former employer TWA.
He's doing it with AA.
007, when are you going to start doing it for your new employer Jetblue? Maybe the T***** ***n curse will strike there as well???

Aloha eolesen,
LOL! I almost fell out of my seat when I read that you knew of the, "Curse of T-****." You must have talk to one of my TWA friends. The, "Curse," started over 25 years ago when I first started to fly with Western Airlines,(HNL). Since then I have work for 7 different airlines, AA was number 8. All but Aviateca Airlines, which had to join Grupo Taca to survive, have failed.
The list is Western Airlines, Peoples Express, Trans International Airlines(TIA), Aviateca Airlines, Trans Continental Airlines(TCA), UTA(Paris),TWA, and now AA. I used to joke all the time, at TWA, when I told people of my airline history and how I felt I was a curse. Then TWA failed. When AA bought TWA I would then say that if I could bring down the world largest and, at the time, well funded, airline it had to be true. Well AA hasnt failed yet and I doubt that they will, but it isnt as funny as it once was. I must choose more wisely next time.[img src='http://www.usaviation.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif']
ALOHA, 007
