Really? A Class action lawsuit as a result?

I read this as having little to do with the material facts of this case, and more to do with greedy investors seeing their first opportunity to jump on a company for cash...

Greedy investors? I think not. I'm a greedy investor, but a 3% drop in share value is simply noise, no more than the volatility even the greediest of greedy bastards can expect from a stock. What this is is a greedy LAWYER who is angling for a chunk of a class action settlement he is trying to manufacture out of nothing. William Shakespeare was right,"First,kill all the lawyers...." |
Yawn. Lawyer shakedown tricks, just a new ambulance.

I saw the 60 minutes piece, and while not flattering for Allegiant, even I know that the information was dated. They are over a year late on those troubling times. It’s obvious that maintenance has improved a lot since then. And I know it’s been said before, but I’ll say it again. You Allegiant pilots deserve a lot of credit for not killing hundreds of people every week back then. The only reason Allegiant still exists today, is because of the skilled pilots that work there. Well done! |

I hope he spends hundreds of thousands of dollars and loses years of his life in this effort, and gets absolutely nothing. What a clown.

Well done! 60 minutes got convinced by someone that we were the next impending aviation disaster and they could be on the cusp of being ahead of the next ValuJet. Ain’t luck a bYa>h. |

Spot on. It's a standard legal weasel shakedown. If the law firm can get a quick payout, they'll take it. A lot of times, that's cheaper than having to deal with a bogus lawsuit.

ValuJet is Southwest. After the crash, (that was attributed to mislabeled oxygen generators that a contract company illegally loaded onto the flight) ValuJet bought AirTran. They were subsequently bought by Southwest. Not trying to pick a fight, but pointing out what many people miss as the history of that airline. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Southwest bought AirTran in spite of ValueJet not because of it. Not to mention it was far removed from both the management and the philosophy that brought it there. It’s like saying Alaska is unsafe due to the elevator incident long ago.
That’s a slippery slope you’re treading. |
