You need to be lamenting that fact. For whatever reason, you think that somehow RAH had to do with the demise of this "great" airline. This airline was going down the tubes long before RAH came on the scene. Maybe it turns around eventually. Maybe it collapses. But if it collapses, to blame that on "outsourcing" is not even close to accurate. Whatever your opinion of RAH and the Midwest dealings, in NO WAY, did RAH cause the demise of Midwest.
$1 Million in the bank, $477 Million in losses last year... it is all a accounting game. TPG is taking every dime out of Midwest before they sell it.
Midwest is a Republic/Delta joint venture.
