		Carty claimed the bonuses were necessary to retain airline executives who otherwise might retire or go on to work for another company -- presumably not a rival and also nearly bankrupt airline.
		Carty explained that with his agreement to voluntarily cut his $811,000 salary by 33 percent, "I am the lowest paid CEO among the major carriers." With the retention bonus, Carty stood to earn $1.6 million annually.
		If Carty still has his job (which is now in question) by the time you read this, he ought to think about sitting in on a lesson on "shared sacrifice." It doesn't mean that management gets to share the earnings and labor gets to sacrifice.

		Even as top American executives were telling the pilots that the company would eliminate their pension plans if it had to file for bankruptcy, Carty and his crew had secretly created a special pension trust for the company's top 45 executives that no creditor could even touch during a bankruptcy proceeding.
