well they did once go from needing to hire 300 to furloughing 300 in less than 3 months.....so i dont think its to far to belive that all this could happen

JFK mechanics apparently know all about it. It could be bunk, but the ramp guys in GSO knew about that crew base way before the pilots ever did. Contract says at least 60 days notice, so if true, we'll find out pretty quick.
I'll one up ya on to that with JFK Mx base closing and moving over to LGA.

Still here. Still stand by my post about Comair shutting down. Looks like what I have been posting is coming true so far. Pay attention to the trends of what is going on and what is being said at Comair. I will pass this along. Skywest might buy Compass, comair or someone eles. we might find out for sure around May 21st. I have been told that if Comair is bought, it is only for the airplanes with no crews or personal. Like I said Comair is gone. The Skywest Purchase of another airline is not a fact that I can back up...

...so...May 21st, huh?...

Oh!! It's all too clear, now!!
That day is;
-(1927)The day Charles Lindbergh touches down in Paris
-(1932)Amelia Earhart forced to land in a pasture in Ireland
-(1960)Jeffrey Dahmer born
-(1981) Irish Republicans hunger strikers die in prison...

....Why didn't I see it before? Aviation...strikers...death! The signs are right there!!! Wake up people! Thank you Trailblazer.

(during the wikipedia search, I found it's also the birthdate of porn actresses Briana Banks and Belladonna. I thought it may have been a significant link, but then realized that they get paid ALOT more than us to get screwed!)

Why would Skywest buy Comair, if they want airplanes and future flying they should buy the company which has the most 75 seats aircraft? Buying comair's 50 seaters doesn't make sense because Delta is returning all of them once the lease are up. But you said you can not back up the skywest buying another airline.

I believe Comair will not be around, you are telling us stuff we know since we were Furlough. We will be Merge or sold and be calld RHS. I am calling that one ;-)
