If a company is liquidated, ALL associated contracts are essentially null and void and you can sell the assets (planes, gates, hardware, certificate) at auction. Due to their relatively high seniority, no regional CEO would really want to buy an intact COMAIR with all the employees.
If the company was dissolved in Ch. 7 due to obvious lack of money, that would be the end of it. If the company were dissolved prior to a sell-off more as a matter of convenience for the seller and the buyer, the employees could sue and claim that they were still entitled to go with the airplanes and be employed...slight gray area here, but the litigation could take quite a while...

I got an email inviting me to interview next week. Anyone else going? I want to go just to see what is going on. Are they being bought by CHQ for sure? Things like that. I am skeptical about their future. Can not wait to see what the word is in Cincy.
