That is absolutely not the case at all. Actually... Lynx has 'donated' two new sets of landing gear actuators (off our planes) to Horizon to help get their fleet in the air and resume ops.
We are not flying our two new aircraft much right now (reaching the end of phase 2 of pre-certification) - so our management donated the much needed parts and we can wait for the new replacements.
We have 4 aircraft to pick up from Bombardier in October - and still have several more thru Dec. We still retain all our 10 option aircraft as well.
Take care all.
