Air Wisconsin lost a lot of stations in the process. I believe they lost GRB, ATW, and MSN. Not sure if there were more. It was my understanding that those companies will be able to do the same work with less people.
The problem wasn't the number of people, but the seniority levels at those stations. I believe the average Seniority at ATW was something like 18 years.

The stations Air Wisconsin lost are: LIT, XNA, BIS, TVC, RSW, and MSN.

The rest of the ones they ground handle at (including PWM) end the current contracts in September. Still awaiting the RFP results.
