    Midwest to Make Announcement Today

    Uh oh. Something might be going on at Midwest, too.

    Furloughs? Cutting Kansas City? I wonder.

    Nothing official on today's announcement, but...
    The company on Wednesday told its pilots union that it had revised its flight schedule, that 35 pilots would be laid off and that 22 would receive position and pay downgrades, said Paul Sweet, a first officer with Midwest and a spokesman for the Air Line Pilots Association.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.

    Here's anothe airline that should have taken the Air Tran bid to merge. While I would have missed their level of service Air Tran would have expanded MKE and kept jobs. I'd wager that if Midex starts to hurt and goes into Chap 11 watch Air Tran move in to buy them.

    And I just got the MWE mastercard offer in the mail.

    Looking forward to a major announcement
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Nothing major came out of Midwest today other than a statement about their MD-80s being back in service.
