4 THE COURIER-JOURNAL, TUESDAY, AUGUST 11, 1981 LOUISVILLE AREA DEATHS Continental Airlines chief apparently commits suicide Meanwhile, Continental spokesman Bruce Plowman said he knew of no link between Feldman's apparent suicide and news over the weekend that a plan to give employees shares of stock in Continental had been dealt a setback. Feldman had presided at a May meeting where a takeover bid by Texas International Airlines was rejected in favor of a plan that would allow employees to purchase the airline by forgoing $180 million in pay raises. Texas International's takeover bid came after Continental posted a $27 million loss in 1980, partly because of a long strike by flight attendants. Feldman's survivors include three children, ages 20 to 25.
