Don't forget, Colgan is losing money hand over fist too.

Quote:
The Company's financial performance for the quarter was negatively affected by two primary issues. First, Colgan Air, Inc. ("Colgan"), the Company's turboprop aircraft operating subsidiary, recorded an operating loss of approximately $5 million. The loss is almost entirely caused by recent significant increases in fuel costs affecting the entire airline industry. Colgan's average cost per gallon of fuel increased 54% as compared to the first quarter of 2007, adding approximately $3.9 million in fuel costs. Colgan's financial performance is also affected by seasonal changes in demand, with unit revenue typically weaker in the first quarter each year as compared to the second and third quarters.

Also, wasn't Bigsky EAS as well? Look what happened to them.
