Has anyone heard anything about the Charlie West flying? A few people mentioned tonight that after the 31 of this month, the CRW-DCA flights were all cancelled and all removed from their schedules... Anyone know if they are planning to close the base or anything? The only reason to have that base is the DCA flying.

7% snapback WILL get thrown out in bankruptcy. This is just a sham. Chapter 11 is happening folks, don't let them trick you. I for one will not be voting no, it will be HELL NO!!!

I've heard the same about the DCA flying out of CRW but the date is news to me. I guess only flying 1 Airways route doesn't make too much sense. If we do lose it I guess it'll likely become another out station/overnight if we keep it at all.

I hope the TA comes across the board to vote:

Option A: 7% Cut

Obtion B: No

Obtion C: Hell No

I vote C...

If you don't you're out of touch with both reality and historical precedent. You're simply asking for cuts in addition to your 7% in bankruptcy. FACT.

That is exactly the dilemma I'm having. I feel that the right choice is to jump ship but I really don't want to start all over again for the 3rd time, however if this place implodes I won't have a choice. So the question is: jump ship or ride it out?

I think that's where we're all at now it would be a shame to bail and then see this ship right itself but it's the nature of the beast. Gather as much data as you can and make the decision you feel is best for you at that point in time and then sit back try to relax and wait to see how it turns out.
