Mesa, Aloha and -$?
Reading over the 8-K from Mesa, it seems like the Aloha name might not be in their favor. It reads like Mesa has to operate in Hawaii under the Aloha name for ten years or pay a huge fee. Am I reading this wrong or could there be a silver lining in this deal (the end of Mesa)? eP. -

I'm doing my CFI checkride and I'm asked about mass balance and aerodynamic balance. I know that the ailerons, rudder and elevator of a Cessna 172RG (most cessna and aircraft in general) are mass or horn balanced and I understand that it makes control inputs by the pilot easy and cuts down on...
