If anyone lives in Chicago or reads the Daily Herald you might have heard about this. There was an Artical in the buisness section the other day about United meeting with Airbus officials about the possible purchase of an A380. Sound impossible? Not when Glenn Tilton is the CEO of United, just look at how he and his buddies slashed pensions and customer benifits while they stuff their pockets. Glenn Tilton stated that "United is now stronger then ever and can hold it's finacial ground. The purchase of an A380 would allow us to lower the amount of flights to certain locations due to the Double Deckers high capicity. And due to the size of O'hare, we would be able to fly the A380 in and out of our biggest hub." Glenn Tilton also stated that" This new airplane would put us ahead of the compitetion by allowing us to carry more people, more efficantly." Someone should smack that idiot. No news on how many of Uniteds employees are talking this expensive news. Even though I believe the chances of this happening or very slim, if it were to happen, United would probably fall to their crediters. And if the deal went through, United would be the first American Airline to buy the monster.
