Our government doesn't let companies with 1000+ employees fail....that's a lot of votes in the next election

They will emerge, but as a small 700/900 operator only, in my opinion.

Sure they do - look at Lehman Brothers circa September 2008.

It sounds like they might keep the six airways dashes too. Didn't they just submit a renewal notice for 4 of them?

Figures as much. Daddy Airways doesn't want to lose that service out west, and he certainly wouldn't want to give it to a wholly owned carrier.

I digress. I'm pessimistic about their emergance, but if they do survive, I'll agree it'll be a 700/900 fleet. Maybe the Airways Dashes will remain since the service they provide can't be duplicated with other aircraft.

Unless I missed your "sarcasm" tag, YGBSM. 1000 voters isn't squat.

They'll merge with Air Whiskey or ExpressJet IMO.
