Thanks for the kudos. It just makes me crazy that some of our employees think that XJT was on the verge of bankruptcy and we swooped in to save the day, when in reality we are saving each other. The only difference is that SkyWest had the cash on hand to execute the purchase and made the first move. Would both companies have survived without this merger? Probably. Both were managed very well, but these are the cards management and the shareholders dealt us to move forward. Whether ATC calls us Acey or Jetlink is irrelevant, I'll proudly use whichever callsign we are told. The important thing to remember is that, going forward, we have a financially stable, well managed company that will keep us employed. Without that, nothing else matters.
Here's to a smooth merger and an industry leading contact.
