ImagineAir folding?

We do some contract work for Imagine down here in Florida. Spoke to one of the pilots Thursday and he’s saying they are about to shut down and was inquiring with us about employment.

Anyone else there hear this?

Not hard to imagine. With mins of 1200 to fly a single engine piston, I can’t imagine pilots are beating down their door. Lots of better options at 1200 hours.

Yeah. I agree. They send us a ton of contract work as they cant find pilots. So looks like it may be true.

Hard to imagine(sic) a worse business model than trying to find (sub-180lbs) 135 IFR guys to fly a damn Cirrus for peanuts.
I mean, at 1200 hours, can anyone think of a WORSE job?

It's confirmed

I received a copy of the email. Looks like they are done. Not sure why my posts are being admin approved. If I broke a rule - please let me know what it is so I don't repeat it.
