ATA is the latest to go BK

[Charlie Brown]

Best of luck to you ATA folks....sadly, I doubt this will be the last carrier this happens to.

 

[Capt. Kramer]

Sorry to hear this. Some of the best pilots I had the pleasure of flying with. Good luck to all.

 

[V-STALL]

Wow! This sucks. Sorry to hear the bad news. I wish you guys all the best, try to keep your heads up.

Guys, I can't think of any words that could help. Best of luck seems sort of hollow at this point. Hopefully World and NAA will pick you guys up. I enjoyed flying with you.

My understanding is that this is the entire ATA operation...is that right? Pax service, contract/charter, everything?

Looks that way

Wow, more very bad news. I am sorry to hear about this, and feel for all of the pilots and other employees involved.

How many pilots are on the list at ATA?

 

[AA717driver]

Never met an ATA pilot that wasn't a good $h!t. Good luck!

BTW, for 30 years they flew big airplanes into some of the crappiest places on Earth. No bent metal. They set a really good example.

Approximately 700 or so on the list with a bunch more on voluntary or involuntary furloughs. Anyone have a spare will work for food sign?

Best 14 years of my life.
