This thread is all doom and gloom.... And picking on Shyguy. I mean the dude's direct, but I've never read anything with him directly putting anyone down. Just speaks his mind.
No one has a clue what's happening on April 2nd. And there most likely won't be an announcement before then.

Pinnacle has some short term financial relief from Bombardier and United/Continental. These agreements were set to end on April 2nd.

I agree with your sell rumor thoughts. Everyone is going to require money to operate the Qs, if United could get away with paying us a little more to make us happy they may do that. Skywest would require alot more I feel, which kills United huge profits from us on the Qs.

Just flew in to YYZ on a DH and saw 3Qs parked outside Downsview airport. One was painted white and red, one seemed not to be painted, and the third was white with a blue tail. That being said, we are not the only ones flying Qs with blue tails.
And for those that think they know what is going to happen realize that we only have 10% of the information we need to make such statements as, "The Colgan side will be eliminated" or "SkyWest is buying us".

There is no conspiracy of Q's in hangers or at the YYZ airport.
Your white and blue Q was probably this

For the First Officers with no turbine PIC and potentially no upgrade anytime soon, if we lose more airplanes. Are people trying to leave? I know there are a lot of guys paying for their own ATP but at other regionals they have already announced FO's will be getting ATP's on their next PC. I would like to know what the plan is for us with regards to the ATP. I want to bail if things go south here but they are so SLOW to tell us anything I am debating leaving before I hear what the deal is.

Knowing Pinnacle/Colgan, they will wait until the last minute, panic, and shove everyone through a half a$$ ATP program in their usual Chinese Fire Drill mode.......
