Lets not forget the recent collapse of Big Sky and Skyway as well. I think that makes 4 airlines since the new year rolled over. :(

Champion and Aloha totals about 400+ pilots where did you get the 1000 number....... hum... unless you had in skyway........

In any event its terrible news for those effected.
