Default Skybus and Virgin America
Weird question: are Skybus and Virgin America connected with each other? I was screwing around on airliners.net and notice several skybus photos which are captioned as "Skybus (Virgin America)".

Skybus leased some Airbii from Virgin America before VA started service.

That would make things a little easier for VA expansion and to hopefully employ a few of the guys put out of work lately.

this forum is so full of hate it makes me wanna puke. Must be the only industry where the misery of some colleagues is the joy of others.
