Chuck Colgan... Why do you think he sold the airline. They were out of $.
Back when Colgan lost the AOL contract to ACA they almost shut the doors... AOL dumped Colgan because the operation was a total mess. It was an airline barely holding on and then Pinnacle Corp bought them and got the Q400s which saved Colgan.
