Small companies with only one or two aircraft on an AOC often have serious cash-flow problems, meaning the company can go under even if one or two sectors are loss-making
Do you have ANY proof whatsoever for this accusation ?
I have managed a 1 and later 2 A/C company for 4 years and was involved in doing so for 14 years and we NEVER were close to shutdown for the loss of de/cing etc. Gear overhaul, engine overhauls...that could get you in trouble, surely, but 2 sectors with a loss? When a company is so close to being bankrupt, than it is too late already IMO.
