I overheard an ALPA rep and a captain talking about a major announcement coming out in September… they speculated that it would be United buying out Mesa. Has anyone heard this rumor?

I am well aware rumors are very unreliable in this industry. Just wondering if others have heard the same thing.

Also, any updates on the CRJ program? Are we ramping up operations in Denver? I know we sent our line qualified instructors back to the line and stopped hiring, but I spoke to a recruiter and he said they’re still hiring CRJ non line qualified sim instructors in anticipation of resuming hiring later this year.
