Centurion in trouble?

Am seeing various reports that Centurion may be in trouble.
A lien has been filed against each aircraft in the fleet due to
unpaid fuel bills, and rumors are floating around that the pilots have
been furloughed.
Centurion Air Cargo faces legal battle - The Loadstar
Anybody have any concrete info on this? Its been a hard year for
the cargo operators already, with Evergreen, World, and GSS
closing for one reason or another

Follow up, just saw this story about 5 aircraft about to be repossessed.

What about their subsidiary Sky Lease are they a new airline or Tradewinds renamed, if renamed then why did they change IATA and ICAO codes?

Typical shysters.......Centurion will die and no one will get paid and all the business will be funneled to the alter ego Skylease. What a way to do business This is what the rest have to compete with

If I remember correctly, companies registered to do business in Florida must pay employees bi-weekly; so if you volunteer to keep the wheels turning beyond 2 weeks without pay, then you're a "company man."
