Looks like we found out who will pay for the Christmas meltdown. Notice how Randy isn't leaving in two weeks, and how the memo is from Kolshak, not Butrell, who is Randy's boss.
To:
All Comair Employees
From:Joseph C. Kolshak, Senior Vice President and Chief of Operations
Subject:New Leadership
Randy Rademacher has informed me of his decision to step down as President of Comair, effective immediately, to pursue other opportunities. Randy was instrumental in shaping the growth and direction of one of the nation’s leading regional air carriers. His significant contributions and strong leadership over many years is appreciated. We wish him well.
Effective today, Fred Buttrell will assume the duties of President of Comair. Fred brings extensive executive experience in airline planning, operations, finance and leadership to this position. Before taking the helm of Delta’s connection carrier network as Chief Executive Officer of DCI, Inc., he served as Senior Vice President—Strategy and Business Development; Vice President of Operational Planning, Control and Reliability; as well as Vice President—Atlanta Airport Customer Service for Delta Air Lines.
A former U.S. Air Force aviator, Fred holds an Airline Transport pilot’s license and is type-rated on the Boeing 737-800 and CRJ-200. He brings passion and professionalism to an airline that shares both qualities throughout its ranks, and I know he will lead the Comair team to new levels of excellence, with your support.
Thank you for all your efforts to keep Comair and Delta flying strong.
Joseph C. Kolshak
