Default mesa to sell KP

Mesa is selling their stake in their china regional. I saw this on google finance they must really need cash selling their only chance at growing their company for investers.

Why would they sell the fuel sipping dash-8s vs the CRJ-200s that KP is flying?

The only reason I could think why you would want that is you're in a PDT pool hoping they get expansion which means you get a class.

you have been reading my posts . Knowing PDT they would let the change of additional ACs slip buy, even if mesa was having a sale "BUY GET ONE FREE"

I think China told mesa to screw off awhile ago, they stopped accepting their CRJ's a long long time ago.

China thing was a bad idea in the first place. Then again, In my opinion, JO has made quite a few bad mistakes.
