Jesus!

I was a former Pace Driver and left back in 2006. I was there when it had promise and seen how brooks tore it apart. Never in a million years would I have suspected this kind of an end. There are just no words. If I were stuck without 5 weeks of pay I would be looking for serious retribution.

My heart goes out to those left at Pace right to the end. It was a privelege to have flown with a great group of guys and gals. I am currently unemployed myself and know how painful this economy is.

Unless there is some miracle, and I do mean miracle, this looks to be the last of Pace in the news as a going concern.

I will forever remember the good times had as an ATL VE based pilot back when it was the hub!

God speed everyone!

An attorney I've been dealing with says that Pace filed for bankruptcy protection this week. Anybody hear anything? Looks like we might have to take our case to the bankruptcy court now, regarding our back pay.

Just what those "in the know" are saying....and I'm not one of those individuals.

Interesting, I think I need to call this lawyer back. I wonder where he got this information from.

The only remaining airframe on the Pace certificate, to my knowledge, is N767MW, the B-767. That airframe will remain on the certificate "to keep it alive" until the potential investor group makes a decision whether they want to proceed with a possible acquisition. In my personal opinion, that option becomes slimmer every day.
