No, the ones with all the useless CAL/Branded fields weigh a ton.

At least my Jepps will get lighter.

Actually they would be stakeholders. Just don't forget a lot your "peers" own stock. Myself and the last few guys I've flown with all own it, anywhere from 250 to 10000 shares.

I do agree the company should have known this press release was coming and should've had their finger on the button to release the same info to its employees. I heart goes out to you guys who live out west. I'm just wondering why we'd agree to terminate a cpa that makes money instead of let it expire in June. The only thing I can think of is that they have a plan in place to make more money with the planes elsewhere.

Also nice that this was announced on the day the MEC office was closed. Lotsa folks getting caught or will be coming back to an unpleasant surprise. While I wish this company would let their employees know what is going on via an email, CCS note, or something, I am glad they are taking the actions needed to keep the doors open.

So if you come back from a COLA or personal leave and your base is closed, does the company have to pay for your move to the new base?
