I don't doubt that flight management is finding out about this in the same way and time we are. Sure, they hear rumors, but nothing concrete until the die is cast. I imagine they are getting to spend today figuring out what to do with the bid. I bet the upper management and bean-counters are scrambling and things like this are very fluid. There are some good guys that have passed through flight management jobs, and when you talk to them, you find out that they aren't given much information either. I always wonder why some put themselves into that situation.
