Reorganization Plan Outlined for Northeast Airlines

Eastern Airlines president Malcolm A MacIntyre proposed a seven point reorganization plan for Northeast Airlines if it loses the Florida route. The scheme would transfer all assets to a new company for stock, set up creditor oversight, accept an airline loan offer totaling 1 million dollars, and establish a watchdog advisory committee including New England lawmakers and officials. Northeast's assets would be worth less than liabilities, with the new company starting debt free except for existing aircraft mortgages. President James W Austin blamed predatory practices for the loss of the route and predicted bankruptcy.
