Common sense would be Compass but I have heard merger/acquisition term used a few times here and there both in person and online at TSA . With that said I haven’t heard the official rumors of any details just “something is in the works”.
One would assume if the price is right Republic would buy TSA for the extra bodies for the cockpit or the other way around. A slow phase out of the 145s while adding 1/2 that number in 175s back in would keep Republic well staffed for a few years at least.
I just find it telling that both forums are talking rumors of mergers but very little details or even speculation. I guess we will know soon enough.
