That is only $414.00 per pilot according to the number of pilots listed on the Mesa snapshot on apc...with as low as wages are, I would imagine anyone could scrounge up $414 by pawning a couple things off, borrowing from friends & family, or donating plasma...honestly I think it's not a bad idea...take it over!!!
When 9E recently fired a whole bunch of ops and corp personnel, I actually thought that might be a good time to rally not only pilots but salried employees for a takeover...instead of utilizing mid-level management cuts to pay the bills, toss the CEO and find someone who costs less and makes better decisions...
