Default Florida West Sold?

Looks like Atlas may have sold Florida West?

From today's Q2 earnings presentation: "In addition, it reflects our decision to sell a subsidiary that we acquired in connection with our acquisition of Southern Air and whose results are presented as a discontinued operation"

I doubt that would serve their whipsaw Lorenzo game plan. My guess would be its some MRO or other ancillary service provider Southern used to cook the books........cynical.......moi?

I think that would have been reported already in the media. Good try.

Amazon might consider a "flow thru" for the contractors to mainline Amazon Prime Air in the same way the legacies have with their regionals.

How true is this, that means Abx will furlough the new hires?

Yes. It's on the Internet so it's pretty much a fact
