You can guarantee? WOW, bold statement! I'm sure that might be the plan but I'd never guarantee, no matter what they've done in the past.
The cert was ACA/IA's. Anyone could have purchased it, but no one did until many years after their fall from grace. They reason why Mesaba and Compass will be attractive buy's isn't their cert’s. It's the fact that anyone who buys them will get guaranteed long term flying from MWA. Much like SKW did with DAL when they purchased ASA. You can bet that 9E, SKW, XJT and RAH will be in the hunt for that business.
