Airlines are a crazy business for sure, but Comair guys have been hearing exactly what you just said for at least the past five years... High costs, no buyers, and were going to close the doors any day now.

There are buyers. . .for the parts. . .not the labor. Sad reality really.

A number of contract providers want the 700s (15) and 900s (13) Comair is operating, but they're not willing to BUY the Company for those assets, rather they're willing to buy the assets if/when/should the company become no more and is parted out.

Let me guess ASA is going to get the "parts".

If they want 15 70s, me thinks they're going to come up 1 short

Does Comair still own planes?

In many ways, looking forward to it.

That sucks, airlines and women are much the same...you commit to them only to have them screw you over in the end!
