The committee had reviewed the general experience of the U.S. airline in- dustry during the more than a dozen years since legislation ended gov- ernment economic regulation of entry, pricing, and ticket distribution in the domestic market.1 The committee examined issues ranging from passenger fares and service in small communities to aviation safety and the federal government’s performance in accommodating the escalating demands on air traffic control. At the time, it was still being debated whether airline deregulation was favorable to consumers. Once viewed as contrary to the public interest,2 the vigorous airline competition 1 The Airline Deregulation Act of 1978 was preceded by market-oriented administra- tive reforms adopted by the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) beginning in 1975. 2 Congress adopted the public utility form of regulation for the airline industry when it created CAB, partly out of concern that the small scale of the industry and number of willing entrants would lead to excessive competition and capacity, ultimately having neg- ative effects on service and perhaps leading to monopolies and having adverse effects on consumers in the end (Levine 1965; Meyer et al. 1959). 15 9310-01 Chapter 1 10/12/99 14:48 Page 16 16 ENTRY AND COMPETITION IN THE U.S. AIRLINE INDUSTRY spurred by deregulation now is commonly credited with generating large and lasting public benefits.

Throughout the case, several events that endangered the existence of US Airways are brought into light. These events serve as basis to introduce the value of leverage and financial distress costs. Moreover, the case reflects on the decision between out-of-court restructuring and chapter 11, while assessing distressed mergers and acquisitions. Finally, the potential merger is analyzed and the proposed solution is that new equity should be split 69-31 per cent between American Airlines’ unsecured creditors and shareholders, and US Airways’ shareholders.

  • Fly Quiet Program Chicago O’Hare International Airport
    2nd Quarter 2016 Report Fly Quiet Program Chicago O’Hare International Airport Visit the O’Hare Noise Webpage on the Internet at www.flychicago.com/ORDNoise nd 2 Quarter 2016 Report Background On June 17, 1997, the City of Chicago announced that airlines operating at O’Hare International Airport had agreed to use designated noise abatement flight procedures in accordance with the Fly Quiet Program. The Fly Quiet Program was implemented in an effort to further reduce the impacts of aircraft noise on the surrounding neighborhoods. The Fly Quiet Program is a voluntary program that encourages pilots and air traffic controllers to use designated nighttime preferential runways and flight tracks developed by the Chicago Department of Aviation in cooperation with the O'Hare Noise Compatibility Commission, the airlines, and the air traffic controllers. These preferred routes direct aircraft over less-populated areas, such as forest preserves, highways, as well as commercial and industrial areas. As part of the Fly Quiet Program, the Chicago Department of Aviation prepares a Quarterly Fly Quiet Report. This report is shared with Chicago Department of Aviation officials, the O'Hare Noise Compatibility Commission, the airlines, and the general public. The Fly Quiet Report contains detailed information regarding nighttime runway use, flight operations, flight tracks, and noise complaints and 24-hour tracking of ground run-ups. The data presented in this report is compiled from the Airport Noise Management System (ANMS) and airport operation logs. Operations O’Hare has seven runways that are all utilized at different times depending on a number of conditions including weather, airfield pavement and construction activities and air traffic demand.

    i i "f . A HISTORY OF THE Philomathean Society (FOUNDED 1813) WITH A SHORT BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF ALL HER MEMBERS FROM 181 3 TO 1892. Philadelphia. AviL Printing Company. 1892. c.-t'l^..'' Infpoburfopg- It might be well to say, in the beginning of this little book, that the committee in charge of its publication has labored under more than ordi- nary difficulties. The work was originally planned out by the Class of '89, and was intended to be entirely the task of that body. It failed of completion, however, and for several years the whole work has lain dormant, while committee after committee has been appointed, only to be discharged without the publication of the much-heard-of Record. At one time some promise of real work was hoped for when the committee for 1891 was appointed. They labored for some days on the manuscript, until finally the work had to be thrown over on account of the pressure of college work. The present committee, realizing, at last, the burden that this unfinished work was upon Philo, and the obligation the Society was under to complete the publication, have made strenuous efl!brts towards this end, and are glad now to be able to report the completion of the Phi- lomathean Record. The work has been enormous, and would have been impossible without the distinguished aid of several of Philo's loyal gradu- ate members. We are especially indebted to Dr. Frazer, whose kindly assistance and co-operation, in every manner possible, have done much in putting us in a position to complete our difficult task.
