He flies on a weekly basis already just to stay current.

The annoucement was as tight lipped as your "source"

Why do people even say stupid stuff like that on here? Either come right out and say what you heard and/or who you heard it from, or just don't say anything.

He can only be eliminated if we're sold. DO is required by FARs

so lets just play devils advocate here for a second. If we were sold to skywest do you think it would be skywest making the purchase or ASA?

Not going to happen.

I for one never said anything about an announcement. But if you pay attention to what is going on with your company it's nothing to get excited about. If any announcement comes out that is bad, it will probably come out on a Friday. No new news have been provided to me. If I get any info I will pass it along. The next announcement that everyone is waiting for will be the big bad one. I assure you it is coming.
