Major airline holding company Pinnacle Airlines announced today they they are filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The $1 billion company, which files under names such as Continental Express and Delta Connection, is hoping to use the filing to continue implementing a turnaround plan aimed at addressing its operational and financial challenges. It plans to restructure its operating agreements with Delta Air Lines and wind down its operations with United Airlines. Sean Menke, President and CEO of Pinnacle, said, "We intend to use the Chapter 11 process to reset our financial and operational structure in order to position Pinnacle for viability over the long term. Quite simply, our current business model is not sustainable, as increasing operating expenses, liquidity constraints, business integration delays and difficulties associated with combining our operations have hindered our ability to maximize our growth potential. Following a lengthy review process, and with the assistance of independent financial, industry and legal advisors, our Board of Directors determined that a court-supervised restructuring is the only feasible course of action to implement our turnaround plan." Pinnacle also said in its press release that it asks its pilots and other employees, both union and non-union, to help cut costs. This will most likely mean some of its 7800 employees will lose their jobs.

Mesaba (from the Ojibwe language, misaabe: "Soaring Eagle") was founded in 1944 by Gordy Newstrom in the Mesabi Range city of Coleraine, Minnesota and started operations in the same year under the name of Mesaba Aviation. On January 4, 2012, the Mesaba operation was fenced into the current Pinnacle Airlines operating certificate. Mesaba was 68 years old, making it the longest running regional airline in the United States. Known throughout the industry for its commitment to the safety of both passengers and employees, the airline will surely be missed. ***The clips contained here-in are licensed to their owners, and not to be used in any way shape or form, unless contacting those users for permission***
