Mesa closes ops
 
This is just a rumor because I don't have any solid info yet, but a friend just called me and said that Mesa is closing its doors because of Delta. I guess the decision came through. I mean, no bankruptcy or anything.

He said that on the news in Albuquerque that they were losing money already and it isnt worth it to keep operations running.

Again, this is just a rumor, as is came off a news channel in New Mexico.

what the name of the news station

JetJock16 05-27-2008 05:32 PM

People will post anything now-a-days. Any rumor heard from anyone.

Probably meant Mesa's Air Midwest ops.

gearmaid 05-27-2008 05:35 PM

if you have no solid info then change the name of this thread or don't post something like this at all.

DrPepper 05-27-2008 05:36 PM

That was the only thing I could find on it. Articles and news clips about Air Midwest

gtippin 05-27-2008 05:45 PM

I found an article with today date saying that if they lose Deltas contract they will file Bankruptcy by 7-20-08 nothing about shutting down. On PHX channel 5 website

That's old news.

This is extremely unlikely at this point...maybe later in the summer.

Unless those clowns have been REALLY cooking their books...have they released 1st QTR results yet? :eek:

Yeah, they'll probably fire their CFO stating that they found porn on his laptop thus buying them a few more days or weeks to further cook their books. :eek:

They ran a lot of airmidwest in and out of ABQ. That would constitute a closing of opps for local media. Most likely what they are talking about.

dont you mean he accidentally deleted the financial results while clearing his computer of porn;)

The Duke 05-27-2008 07:21 PM

Awfully bold move to start a thread of this nature on the basis of rumor and no solid information. I agree w/ the others, you may be speaking of AirMidwest, which recently announced they're ceasing ops shortly and served numerous destinations in NM, hence the story being reported by a news network in ABQ.

ExperimentalAB 05-27-2008 07:27 PM

Just add a question mark to the thread title and cover your butt...

bradeku1008 05-27-2008 07:29 PM

I wish I had more hands, I'd give this thread 4 thumbs down. Lame!

Tell your friend to lay off that high elevation weed. It's easier to make a distinction between Air Midwest and Mesa that way.

Didn't' you know PSA is planning on taking over the flying in PHX after Mesa is gone, or was it Air Wisconsin.

muushin 05-28-2008 02:25 AM

Island air to take over mesa routes
 
Island Air has been awarded an EAS contract to serve Kansas City, Joplin, Mo, Hot Springs, AR and Harrison, AR......



Hey, ..............
would that not be ironic for them to get more stuff from mesa?

RightSeatDude 05-28-2008 04:04 AM

An accurate subject line would be "Mesa closing ops?", NOT "Mesa closes ops".

Sorry guys, I didn't realize what I typed in the topic heading. I tried to change it but I can't seem to figure that part out. I didnt mean to spread a rumor. I won't do that again. I posted out of excitement I guess and really didn't put much thought behind it.

I asked my friend if it was Mesa and not just Air Midwest and he said it was Mesa. He was prob mistaken, because I couldn't find anything to substantiate the claim.

Again, my apologies.

flyingkangaroo 05-28-2008 06:19 AM

They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.

BlueBus 05-28-2008 06:23 AM

Is it too late in the thread to say Mesa Blows???

Dont worry about it, I think that alot of people are waiting on the Mesa bust and got disappointed when they found out that it wasnt true. We all know its just a matter of time before it really happens so...

How old are you?

Don't you have something more constructive to do? Guess not, since your probably another clueless, lurking CFI.

Cute pic of the -700. You must beat off to it.

Flying into CLT in a -200 all day must do that to a person.

So all CFI's are clueless and immature now, huh? Sorry for not having a big, shiny jet to captain.... :rolleyes:

Unfortunately, about 80% of you guys are.
