The 800 lb gorilla is LCC's labor issues - Pilots, FAs. AMR mgmt, BOD can and should take the position that nothing can happen until and unless Parker has new contracts in place. The MOU between AA and LCC pilots is interesting, but was never accepted by either mgmt, isn't worth the paper it is written on without it.
