Hi Eric- Yes, I have been trying to understand this unbelievable spider's web that had been woven over ILN and what was once, IMHO, a very smartly run company with a very promising future (I was there 1986-87. Were you?).

I am currently retired from a Legacy at age 53 and am looking to get back into flying for a few more years. ATI seems a tidy enough outfit and so on.

But please share your concerns and any advice you may have, either thru PM or in public. I don't have a very in depth view of all these aquisitions and how they all relate or the motivations behind all the "players". You may spare me some angst.

JP
