Sorry guys I haven't been following this... But is Avantair back? Someone asked me about them the other day and the website is up and working.
Usually the website is the first to go after a liquidation.

I think the company is done for. And employees lives will be destroyed, while the scumbag CEO moves on to his next victim.

The IT dept didn't shut off the website before they all went home.

Yea Avantair has been dead for a while, a lot of the pilots have moved on, mostly to TMC, FlightSafety, Wheels Up, and ExpressJet

Not only is the website still up, but you can still buy their stock.

Total government oversight fail.

Yes - the gov't should be blamed for the investor being an idiot.
