probably because every pilot was typed in the aircraft and there was no training contract. There are around 90 pilots there now and some of them have been on the payroll for quite a while so if they had their eyes open for greener pastures there was nothing holding them there so they probably took their type ratings and moved on. Just speculation but probably not far from the truth

But, you know. That never happens. I'm probably wrong anyway.

Yeah, except when too many airlines compete for a finite amount of business, forcing themselves into price wars and operating on margins so thin they must either force pay cuts on their employees or they go bankrupt, or both.
But, you know. That never happens. I'm probably wrong anyway.

I still think it is a good news. It's better than airlines folding like they did in the last 10 years. (ie. Pan Am, TWA, Piedmont etc.)

That is true to as certain extent, but Lynx does not compete with all airlines, just other small market operators like Great Lakes and such.

I am sure more than one person will be disappointed when they board a Lynx plane expecting this:

I wonder how this will work in the long term because many F9 flights are full. They new routes will bring people to DEN…but then what?
By the way…the Q-400’s sure looked cool in the snow on Saturday!!!
