Continited/UniCal to buy Saabs
Quote:
Dear Team Members,
It is with great joy that I announce that in an unprecedented move, United has agreed to take over the Colgan Saab operation. They have agreed to take over the leases, contracts, and personnel assigned to the aircraft. All aircraft and flight crew will be moved to the United certificate. All pilots and flight attendants currently assigned to the Saabs will be given United seniority numbers. From United management, "We welcome the Saab crews to our team. We are happy to have them on board, and look forward to having more of our regional flying done in house."
This change will significantly increase Pinnacle Corps viability since the Saabs were the least viable area of our operations.
Following this transition, bankruptcy is less likely. However, we are still seeking a pay reduction of 10% from labor unless our mainline backers choose to take over the rest of our flying.
Regards,
Sean

It seams the mainlines may well be taking the turbo prop business back.
