MAG management, with 10% of the new issue stock, will be in a weak position to prevent a possible M/A.

p.s. Did you see the big reveal of Nilchii, Inc. in the disclosure statement? Apparently MAG loaned Spirit $15 million in 2006 resulting in a valuation of the investment at $61.4 to $95.6 million.
Hint:
Indigo Partners, Oaktree Capital Investment, and William A. Franke

SKW INC will probably not touch mesa with only four years on the airways contract. They have historically been very leery about acquiring hardware with any significant tail risk. It's remotely possible that the street value of the 900's would be enough to make it worthwhile...I'm not sure how beat up those units are today.
