CHQ and S5's days are numbered with the recent events. Freedom's days are also numbered whether it be bankruptcy, buyout, or change of ownership at MAG. With the smaller DCI fleet it makes sense to keep the wholly owned and merge Mesaba and Comair. Comair has three paths to follow for it's future: Merger, Sale, or Dissolved.
