The judge shouldn't let them order a damn thing. But given that the tax payers were forced to support GM and Chrysler , why not. New business with fresh ideas and people are supposed to replace these old decaying companies in a free market. We are no longer a free market.

Pretty impressive for a bankrupt company. I wonder which bank is going to stick it's neck out?

Good question. I also wonder what would happen to their massive A320 order as well.

In short, something smells rotten in Denmark..
