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.
i have only been here 2 years and i can GUARANTEE!
that all they want to do is sell off mesaba and compass. NWA has NEVER been in the regional business, they have bought and sold pinnacle so many times that there is almost a trend that shows no sign of change, and they don't want to be in the regional business. like i said they bought the cert for 1 mil. yes you are right but no body wanted to purchase it till it was dirt cheap, and that is when nwa moved in. now when they sell they will be selling a cert that will be up to date and give the holder at least 10 years of nwa flying. yes compass and mesaba will be sold, its just a matter of a few years or less.
