Hopefully they will emerge leaner and stronger. At the very least, I'm wishful that the remaining unhappy "sky cows" on the international flights will disappear along with their pensions and bloated salaries. If AA survives restructuring and gets through it quickly (which I'm betting they will), I think we will see a younger, more dynamic airline much better prepared for future competition and perhaps somewhat more responsive to a greater number of it's customers needs.
