Just looking for info.
Heres another realistic scenario for you. Management never offers a market rate contract (they have showed zero signs that they will) and the place melts down from within (its happened before) we just didn't close the doors. Indigo then takes the aircraft and gives them to xyz airlines or potentially sells future delivery slots to xyz. Parts of our scope are expired and the parts that are not need major changes. Either way they turned a 50 million dollar investment into 1 billion. I alway find it funny when a newer guy says were built to withstand a economic downturn. Thats true because they can just close the doors rather than lose money. Theres no shareholders to answer to. Thats what i would do if i was up 1 billion. Why lose that? Now your friend is scratching his head, sitting at a crash pad in phl, down six figures, wondering what the he!! happened.
