Look at past events
Richard Anderson is in Charge of NWA - Pinnacle gets 141 CRJs
Richard Anderson Leaves NWA to become the CEO of united healthcare - Pinnacle Switches to United Healthcare for medical
Richard Anderson Leaves united healthcare to become ceo of delta/nwa - Pinnacle gets delta flying and comes out looking pretty darn good post merger. Delta is on the q400's insurance policy even though pinnacle does not fly a q400 for delta (yet - and that might be an inaccurate statement but i thought i heard it somewhere)
Delta uses cigna for health insurance - pinnacle dumps united healthcare and goes to cigna.
So I would have to assume there is a path Phil is following and he probably has been hooked up with some sweet ass deal. If he ends up at Delta I would assume that he would then try to protect the rest of his former management team at pinnacle but if they all start quitting then we might think something is up.

Bottom line is people change and you just move on. When Bob Barker left, the price is right didnt stop. Although it sucks now.......... So whoever the next CEO is, come onnnnnnnn downnnnnn!

Delta now uses United Healthcare, unless something has changed in the last enrollment

CEOs do not voluntary leave in matter of 14 days unless they either have A. a better offer B. Hell is about to break out, period. Gun to my head, the board called for resignation. I know one of my buds has a meet and greet with his wife and her aviation education bit on the 22nd. Unlikely but maybe he will learn more. I met Trenary a few times, the only CEO I ever met that still likes flying a Cessna 150 over anything else. I always found that odd.

I don't mind Drew Carey, a little awkward at times but thats what makes him funny. Oh wait, back to PT, why is it that everyone wants to complain about what a waste of air he is, draw pictures of him in the bathroom and talk bad about him in general and now that he is actually leaving something bad is in the works? PinkSlip, you keep claiming the sky is falling with all this bad stuff in the works but you've done nothing to substantiate your claims... All you do is say just wait, keep waiting, its gonna be huge! Speak up, these boards are already littered with wild speculation and rumor, if you have something to say then say it. Out with it PinkSlip, what is the doom and gloom now?? If Phil leaving was your big bad news then what a let down. Every one claims that management is so disconnected from the workings of the airline and Phil was the head of it. What if the board is fed up and ready for a change. You're posts are like a preview for a movie that ended up sucking.

CEO Phil Trenary quits Pinnacle
 

Time for John Spanjers from mesaba to right the flagship!!!!

At the end of the day, the metrixs don't match for Spangers to take over. (anyone at XJ knows this inside joke) I doubt he will ascend up to the position. A outside source will be brought in. I'm wondering if this is a consequence of an acquisition deal failing?

He busted his PC. He failed to recognize that some of the centerline lights on the runway were out of service on a low visibility takeoff in the simulator. Failed on careless and wrecklessness, professionalism and attention to detail.


He was unable to Train To Proficiency due to the magnitude of his grave unsafe mistake.

he will not be missed

Wait, did I miss something?

Its just that pinkslip guy trying to get a reaction as usual.
