Yeah, that'd make too much damn sense.

Some knuckleheads on another forum still can not understand the obviousness of such.

Go figure.

Hopefully it'll be Mesa/Freedom who see some cuts. . .but no one is safe.

That just means the severance packages won't be offered at Comair. Comair does it's own "dirty work"!
