This really is too bad for the airline. I always thought that Chicago and Jacksonville were some of their best performers. I believe that they were also Airbus cities, so I wonder what will happen to those planes? Maybe a possible return to lessor, even though the Airbus plane are economically much more friendly then the CRJ's.
Another hot rumor is that GE is going to be providing some financing. Yet another rumor is that Bombardeir is involved in some aspect of getting DH through this rough patch.
