I’m just going to leave this right here. Not going to speculate, but this backs up the death of 200’s.
Also added 150 shares of the stock ($ACIC) to my portfolio. Looks like Mesa is involved.

Not making an argument for this competing with the 200 market, I think UA is really done with them though. We’ll see I guess.

UA is doing corporate "greenwork" so no one scrutinizes the emissions released into the upper troposphere. The old musician's trick, "look at my left hand..."

Last email from CEO was over a month ago, starting to feel like the AA wind down all over again...though this time there’s not a magic savior at the end of the tunnel. I’ve tried really hard to be optimistic, but the companies actions don’t show us to much to be optimistic over. 700/900 additions were 5 years too late.
What I’m guessing they didn’t consider was the ugly side of it all and they thought they’d escape unscathed like they did previously and everything would be hunky dory with the 200s again.
It almost seems like they’re now trying to play catch-up adding the 700 and 900 to the operating certificate when others had them for years already.
The simple fact is AW doesn’t even have the airplanes on the fleet/property so it’s all hearsay and speculation for now.
Like all things AW, until we can physically see those planes on property and believe it, is when we have them to fly.
As for communication between management and employees, they really need to work on that. It’s almost like Viceroy Gunray in Star Wars saying “no need to report that to him until we have something to report.”
