The way this economy is - why would anyone hope that somebody loses their job? I am surprised at some of these comments.
Remember - the fight is against management, not the employess! I am sure we all know at least someone who is at VA who was laid off from our current airline - why would you want them to get laid off!

At Alaska we lost an FO to VA. All he would talk about is the low pay at Alaska. I hope he never makes it anywhere. Yeah buddy you know who I am !!
Of course VA is not saying anything. They never do. They never want to say anything but how their Inflight entertainment system works or what half naked women they will be flying around as a marketing ploy. VA is most likely in violation as I write this but our govt. could care less. It is that simple. They do not care. If they did, they would stop them yesturday. How can the DOT give them such hassles to get certified in the first place then when it falls apart, they do nothing? I would bet my life if us American citizens started an airline in the U.K. and we lost our British funding, we would be locked out at the jetway. Our govt. views it like a game as they to most everything else in aviation. The worst part is everysay they allow VA to operate in violation of their so called agreement with the DOT, the US airlines are being disgraced by a huge slap in the industry face by the very govt. that wrote the rules to protect the US owned companies. If VA has lined up new money....use it NOW. Great..I could not be more happy. But, to allow them to operate illegal, well I think we should fine the DOT everyday they allow it. But, like I said, they just don't care......
Down with rich men!!!!/\
Once again, the rich mans world prevails...
