I wonder what is the likely scenario that United could claim pensions and other issues are so insurmountable and USAir on its last legs is so bad as well that the US governement would let the two merge into one saving many jobs? I am not trying to beat a dead horse but the thought comes to mind when Tilton stated earlier that the US government should relax its merger policies among airlines. I envision such a possible plan since it was squashed pre 9/11, it may fly post 9/11 with some sort of pension waiver thrown in to appease the employees and/or government.
