They've canceled upgrade classes mid-class before, so yeah they could still do it. Will they? No. Then they'd have 100-200 mesaba Saab pilots getting paid with no planes to fly. Plus they'd still be critically short on the -200 side.

The POINT is, since it needs to be explained to you, is that Pinnacle is in no financial shape to make any further acquisitions. Cash, no cash, credit or otherwise, they aren't in any position to make moves. They are deep into a M&A mess and have no plans to make it any worse. Hence IT WILL NOT HAPPEN. Besides, what would they gain from this that they didn't gain from the purchase of Colgan?
I wouldn't put too much into that one, just a troll feeling pretty smug about his SLI winnings.

Menke has stated several times that the company has way to many projects going on right now and we need to prioritize and finish these projects. We just got the Mesaba fence worked out but had to delay it until Jan 4. I can't see the company taking on any new projects like this until we complete the mergers with Mesaba and Colgan which will take until the end of 2012 at best. I don't see us looking at anything else until after the end of next year at best.

Can't forget about those sweet-ass new uniforms we're getting! What a great use of close to a million dollars of the company's money! /sarcasm
