Left out Mesaba. I guess since it's all one company, they're bottom feeders now, too. I think the reason Pinnacle Corp is in trouble right now is they bought Mesaba and moved their HQ to a swanky downtown office building all within a year without the financial balances to do so. Most of this reason was so the CEO could look good in the Memphis Business Journal. A CEO, I might add, who is no longer there and is drawing a pretty hefty sum of money as a severance to sit home and do nothing. Not sure how much Peter Hunt had to do with the whole thing....
