That would make more sense since there has been an outstanding RFP for DEN and ORD. Menke even admitted it in a conference call but said Colgan ops weren't up to snuff for new flying. A plane that holds half the seats and is less efficient would make no business sense at all. 135s can't compete with the Q on efficiency.

As far as the bankruptcy questions. The union will make its case. We are unsecured creditors so they have to at least listen to us but at the end of the day we don't matter in that regard. We will probably make out better in terms of labor under a democratic president. We are only average in costs, there is not much the judge can reasonably take from us but that depends on what judge we get. Oh btw it will be extremely hard to furlough out of order, as in liquidation hard, so please don't start that rumor again.

How are you an unsecured creditor? The company doesn't owe you anything! (I could be wrong) If this is a statement that you are making because of the AMR CH11, their 3 major unions have pensions and that is why they are part of the unsecured creditors comity, those unions are owed billions of dollars worth of unfunded pensions.
