Non-special Aronszajn trees on א_ω+1

We continue our research on the relative strength of L-like combinatorial principles for successors of singular cardinals. In [3] we have shown that the existence of a λ⁺-special Aronszajn tree does not follow from that of a λ⁺-Souslin tree. It follows from [5], [4] and [6] that under G.C.H. □_λ does imply the existence of a λ⁺-Souslin tree. In [2] we show that □_λ does not follow from the existence of a λ⁺-special Aronszajn tree. Here we show that the existence of such a tree implies that of an 'almost Souslin' λ⁺-tree. It follows that the statement "All λ⁺-Aronszajn trees are special" implies that there are no λ⁺-Aronszajn trees.
