Default 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.

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

Probably meant Mesa's Air Midwest ops.

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

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?

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.

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.
