Implications???
Not being an MBA type, I am wondering what the implications for us pilots MIGHT be (short and long term) IF such a buyout were to occur. Anybody having experience with this sort of thing please feel free to elucidate my limited business brain......Anybody except for Rowdy1 that is. He seems to lean towards the "glass is totally empty" view of things.
Thanks
Thanks

The theory is that capital assets can be "cashed out" and create enough profit to pay for the investment funds required to do the deal.
Then the company is either scrapped or run with leased equipment and debt instead of capital and money in the bank.
Then the cost-cutting begins, because hey, we're just not profitable anymore....

"After a major corporate restructuring, which may involve selling off portions of the company and severe staff reductions, the entity would likely be producing a higher income stream."
