Pace was recently sold and all the former Hooters family/inlaws are out of the picture as they were paid.
The main reason for Pace problems now is that their rather large MRO contract w/Continental was withdrawn, due to Continental's lower flying demand.
I know a new arrival at Pace, and he is a no nonsense guy whom is reorganizing the whole show, from the executive suite....IE, downsizing as it were.
