ASA's Future

[Dubya]

Well I guess you got your panties all in a bunch. And yes saw your link, and the fact is either LLC or Whole owned would not matter. Skywest Inc and Atlantic Southeast are two seporate companys. All JC would have to do is get his peers on board and use ASA money to buy anything. Just some business 101 for ya. ASA is going to grow if you like it or not.

Thanks for your input Alan.

ASA can not buy anyone, and that has nothing to do with what type of corporation ASA is (an LLC [which it's not] or otherwise). All of ASA's shares are held by a holding company, which means all of the profits and losses basically come into and out of the holding company's account... Unless you know something we don't. When is ASA's next earnings conference call?

Thanks for that-

I just cannot respond to the level of stupidity exhibited by skytard without grabbing the nearest hammer and breaking stuff!

-Skyman- Plz don't ever try and teach a business 101, or anything of the sort. It is obviously not your bag. Don't try and make this stuff up-there are a few people here who actually passed a college-level class or two.

Oh, for God's sake, ASA can't even buy their own fuel.


End of.

This thread makes such little sense, I had to punch my own crotch to restore balance to the universe.

After I catch my breath, I'm planning on discussing politics with a hotel iron. We may even bathe together. I hope the cord reaches the tub.

SH did not rule out ASA buying a branded airline, such as AirTran, Alaska, Jetblue, or Virgin. I never thought that would even be a possibility.

Just because SH didn't "rule it out" doesn't mean it has a snowball's chance in hell of happening.

I know you're not as ignorant as that comment sounds. That sounds just like "Comair can't even sell tickets for its flights." If mainline picks up the fuel tab, so be it. What do you care?

 

[brokedash]

Misleading it was just one, a spare, rest were 88 seaters.

And ASA only had 5 or 6 total.

You just can't get quality entertainment like this on TV.

Well for your info I have two degrees and a masters in business. Judging by your responce and knowledge I wouldn't have guessed you made it out of high school. A good education is hard to come by these days. Maybe I could sit down with you and show you how a p and l works with a whole owned company and how those company's benifit from buying other assets. And yes they can. But I guess with your level understanding I would be throwing my time away.

I remember English 101 and 102 being prerequisites for all majors. Especially business.

Indeed it is Alan. Indeed it is.

I can say that I have a degree in rocket fuel design. I can say that I have walked on the freaking moon. I can say I have walked on Lake Lanier, won the Nobel Prize, and a couple of Grammys.

-I could pretend any and all these things were true, but I know they are not. I am certain that you have none of the things you are claiming-especially not the MBA. You don't even know the difference between an LLC and a wholly-owned subsidiary, or how to freaking spell half the stuff you just wrote. Don't even think for a second anyone is buying your load.

-For your efforts, I must assign you a well-deserved FAIL!

I actually do have a degree in rocket fuel design... specifically did my master's on solid rocket propellant using aluminum nanoparticles to accelerate the burn rate but I'll still admit I'm an idiot. ;-)

Alittle education of how Skywest, Inc is structured since some of you think ASA or Skywest can just go buy another company and merge them or run them as separate.

There are only 2 employees of Skywest, Inc. They are Jerry Atkin, Chairman and CEO and Brad Rich, VP and CFO. Jerry's and Brad's compensation is payed out from Skywest and ASA with Skywest paying 60% and ASA at 40%. I have no idea why it's 60/40 and not 50/50 but it's the way it is. Skywest, Inc uses ASA and Skywest personel to do the books, recordkeeping, accounting and whatever is required to run a company. Each individual company is free to negotiate with it's existing codeshare partners for new flying and compensation within guidelines Jerry has set. All new codeshares, ventures and purchases for ASA/Skywest and Skywest, Inc are pursued by Jerry and Brad. If Jerry thinks it's in the best interest of "Inc." then flying will go to ASA or Skywest or even a new separate company. ASA and Skywest don't have the ability to buy anyone even though it may be their money Jerry and Brad is using.

Do you see the difference here Alan? This guy backed up his degree claim by correctly spelling propellant, aluminum, and nanoparticles.

Nanoparticles Alan, nanoparticles.

Jerry and Brad just facebooked me saying that ASA is going to buy Delta and then merge them with Skywest and then Skywest is going to buy a post merger United/Continental and merge them with ASA and then ASA is going to sell Delta to Skywest and Skywest is going to sell UAL/CAL to ASA and then both DAL and UAL/CAL are going to break off and go independent making UAL/CAL the world's largest airline and Delta will be the 2nd largest and then Jake from the bachelor is going to cry about it. Look for an announcement by the end of the week. You heard it here first.
