Sorry tincan, you can have facts or names but you can't have both
I always laugh at these threads--everything is SOOO secretive.
Just wait till the end of July, then see whose name is on there old planes.

Maybe the rats are leaving a sinking ship ???
Getting away while the getting is good
The oil patch has slowed a bit about twenty percent for drilling ,although production is stable and set to rise.

I heard Robert Milton is looking to downsize his dreams. He doesn't like the new E-190s so he decided to walk away from the whole lot and invest is some King Airs.
I think it will be good for him. No more union headaches. No more work-to-rule pilots. Just fire the ones you don't like.
I might be wrong on all this but I think my information is pretty solid. I heard it from a friend of a friend of a guy that knows someone that slept with an F.A. that used to work for a company that did business with a contractor for Air Canada.
I figure that with my industry contacts I should start my own tabloid rag. Call it "The Daily Prop". Thoughts?

King Air 200's and B100 sold to North Cariboo Air. Sunwest did not buy out. No fate yet on the Navajo's that I know of.
Cheers,

Hey Cloudcover,
I think I'm sleeping with the same FA that your friends buddy did... cause the one I'm doing told me the same thing (dirty FA's). So it must be true.
