Based on the full page ad in the ADN today, I’d say nobody has been awarded any of Ravn’s assets yet. Bidding deadline for the sale of the airline is June 27th.

That's an interesting guiding of the lily. I would venture to say that there are a bunch of folks who would dispute their claim that they have 1300 employees .... probably about 1300 people who would dispute that.

You must have missed this part,

Company facts and statistics are as of April 4, 2020, before Ravn’s COVID-19 shutdown and Chapter 11 filing.

Uhhhh, No, I didn't miss that part. I was commenting on the sheer absurdity of publishing an advertisement which describes the company in terms which are not currently true, and have not been even vaguely true since the company completely cratered, as if that is a meaningful description of what they are selling. Even reading the qualifier, someone who didn't know better would be left with the impression that Ravn is functioning company, temporarily forced to suspend operations and everyone is eagerly standing by, ready to spring back into action when the coronavirus restrictions.

It's a lot like trying to sell Roy Halladay's ICON with pictures of it when it was new and describing it as:

Pristine. low hours, fresh annual, No Damage History, no hangar rash *


* Description of aircraft is as of November 6, 2017 .

Sounds like Seaplanes overplayed their hand.

Interesting, but seem like kind of a non-seqitur. Were you intending to post this on another thread?

That's what I was wondering. I thought we were about to segue into a Security Aviation thread, but no mention of "Cmdr" Kane.
