***If you remember, THEE ORIGINAL 717's were from the ORIGINAL TWA way back in mid 90's. TWA purchased them brand new when back in the mid 80's Carl Ichan bought the old OZARK that merged into TWA and had their (OZ) old DC9's as a replacement for the DC9's; back in Ichan's owner of TWA, I beleive.****

***WELL; the article DID NOT mention that he recently purchased a mansion; left a major OAL, with a 'small fortune'; UNITED gave him 'BONUS BUCKS" to have him 'a-board'; his current wife works for a MAJOR AIRLINE, ( i think the one that he left); and that 'currently', his NET WORTH is little over, 'little over', 20 million $$. SO, S. KIRBY waved his pay for the rest of the yr. You would think that it would be automatically sent to CHARTIBLE organizations; such as, FOOD PANTRY'S, CHURCH'S, and MEDICAL RESARDH....you know, the ones that are TAX DEDUCTIBLE!! SO...S.Kirby did a good dead, when come in a few months, LAY OFFS and such!!! Cant say much about B.J. HART, didnt read any info about him; YET!! HEY; THANKS.

SIR: Well, if the gvt cannot keep a out a business on the basis of its owners viewpoints, then how do you explain the case in CO, recently, that a bakery (baker) refused in making a decorated cake for same sex couple for their wedding/anniversary. Wasn't that taken to court, (government) and the court won over the same sex couple. Seems to me that the government in CO WON that one!

*** HEY, someone wrote: "what goes around, comes...." I don't blame ANY airport for refusing this particular establishment. CASE IN POINT: Colorado and the bakery that REFUSED in making a cake w/decorations about same sex couples, then SAT and other airport HAS a RIGHT to refuse this fast food company, and THEY'RE CLOSED on SUNDAYS. If they gave almost 2mil to SUPPORT ANTI-GAY, that's their business and THEIR belief's. ALSO, didn't think that FAA OWNS an airport, thought it is owned by the city...guess i'm behind the times!! THANKS

** Don't believe that will happen (anytime soon)!! I'm sure the companies that have the MAX are pretty much frustrated w/this situation, and who wouldn't, but eventually things will get back to the "NORM". Every since SW started, its been all 737, that's ALL THEIR ENTIRE FLEET. To switch, would not be in their business mode. Think about ALL the mechanics that would need either RE-TRAINING or NEW TRAINING; FLIGHT CREW would need to be trained and certified, and Pilots would need TRAINING and a new TRAINING SIMULATOR area would need to be brought in. LASTLY, may have to order BRAND NEW A220, WITHOUT OVENS, (could be a costly issue), or take out any ovens in used A220, again a costly issue, to reduce weight. And then gate jetways would need proper fitting. OVERALL, might be just 'venting' the frustration in grounding of the MAX for mostly intended to use to Hawaii to reduce fuel cost. (Looks like PROFIT may not be that big this time)!!*** THANKS

**WOW: I can still remember when working for TWA in reservations, when in the early-mid 90's, when the employees bought the MD83 from "BE-WEE", (BWIA), and we repainted it in 'reverse' colors. AA took possession of that plane and few other MD83's. SAD to see it go by the wayside, but also TWA went by the wayside as well. The MD80's, (83) were the replacement 'workhorse' for the 727's.

** AND THIS HAPPENED more than a month ago!! Family saw on TV all the "HOOPLAW" about overbooking, and people being "dragged" off of a flt, FAMILY JUST WANTED publicity. THE FATHER said HE DID NOT WANT ANY $$$, since he spent his own money in getting 3 new tkts at a 'walk up' price, paid for hotel rm and such....and his older son went home earlier, probably had to pay for changing his tkt; YEP, FAMILY IS AT FAULT here. FAMILY JUST MAKE THEMSELVES LOOK BAD!

***FAMILY AT FAULT *** THE INFANT *DID NOT PAY* for that seat; that is considered a "LAP CHILD"; just that, "LAP". If that seat is empty and no paying pax is occupying that seat, up to the discretion of flt crew for the infant to sit there. OVERBOOKING: ALL AIRLINES *HAVE TO OVERBOOK* due NO SHOWS; such as paying pax at times STAND BY FOR EARLIER flts. USE TO BE some airlines WOULD CHARGE A FEE if you wanted to stand by for an earlier flt, but along came FREQUENT FLYERS w/their PRESTIGE amount of REWARDS and "FAKE" (non flying) accumulative awards that the airline WOULD NOT CHARGE them the fee for stand by.....some airlines did it to themselves in relaxing THEIR POLICY. MUCH HAS TO DO WITH "NUMBERS", the NO-SHOW FACTOR and amount of LOAD FACTOR; just NUMBERS to make that carrier look its best. FAMILY IS AT FAULT at this one. Now they go on TV and "plead" their case. THEY ONLY MAKE THEMSELVES LOOK BAD. "FAKE" AWARDS: Airlines might want to look at THEIR OWN POLICY for F.F.AWARDS. You mi

** Reading all the comments, can ANYONE give ,AT LEAST, some of this information to FAA. What is FEDERAL LAW here in the US, may not take precedence in SAN SALVADOR. (wonder if SW will be the one to bring back jobs in America, or not)!
