One final thought....I have seen John Spanjers speak in front of a group of employees and let me tell you...he has VERY poor public speaking skills. He appears nervous by virtue of his mannerisms (Putting hands in and out of pocket repeatedly sometimes jingling change, pacing back and forth, and jerky movements) he talks to the floor about 10 feet in front of him occasionally looking up at his audience, has poor posture (slumping shoulders. I feel uncomfortable listening to him and watching him as he speaks...I could continue the public speaking critique (I took public speaking class in college and we had to critique and be critiqued.) The guy is NOT CEO material. Spanjers was NEVER qualified to be CEO of Mesaba Aviation or any other company for that matter.
One final though on the 401k...Randy Strobel, Vice President of Finance should be terminated and investigated. This should have been the first step in the "ACTION PLAN" proposed by Spanjers. He (Spanjers) never explained the "errors" (translation: criminal acts) in any kind of detail and how cash mysteriously never made it to the 401k. He only wrote a 'letter to employees' after this whole thing surfaced in the Wall Street Journal last month. If Spanjers wanted credibility he should have addressed the employees with a detailed letter (not vague) long before ace Wall Street Journal reporter Ian McDonald broke the news to Mesaba's employees.
Ian McDonald's report:http://mesabapilots.alpa.org/WSJ_article.htm
Also...the reason it is taking so long to provide details of how much is missing, when the errors occurred, for how long the errors occurred, where the money got funneled, why the errors were not detected in the year end 401k audit is probably because there has been criminal acts committed.
I think that pen with the words 'AIR WISCONSIN' on it is a really good indication of the sad state of affairs at Mesaba Airlines headquarters...
