Question Atlantic Southeast Rumors

Whats all this I keep hearing about you guys hiring 400 new pilots within the next year?

I also heard Skywest Inc. possibly buying a wholly owned DCI carrier from Delta and merging it with Atlantic Southeast?

Hey relax...I'm asking the questions around here.

Heard it from a couple of ASA pilots. I fly for a reputable regional (one of the taller midgets in the room)....that's all you need to know.

SkyWest, along with several other regional holding companies. are bidding for Mesaba and Compass. ASA has been instructed to "be prepared" in case we win the bid, which of course, they expect to.

If they don't win, I wonder if this place will collapse in the Fall?
