History and case analysis of Eastern Air Lines. Eastern is one of those old airlines that many of us have heard of, but not everyone has flown. This video will review the events leading up to their failure, and their impact on the aviation industry going forward. Details are kept brief to shorten the length of the video and encompass the big picture of events.

SOME CLARIFICATIONS
When stating that Eastern was a victim of "bad management", that information was taken from other outside sources and is "factual" based on those articles. Sources are linked in the document below. Some may say that Lorenzo did what he had to do to save the airlines under Texas Air, and some may disagree. This video is intended to portray a neutral perspective on the case of Eastern Air Lines, regardless of any bias I (the writer) may unintentionally show.
