tmpffisch. I don't think there were any employees left there. My information is that they shot the gap a few weeks ago. Anyone closely associated with Alligator would have seen the writing on the wall the minute CASA closed them down a month ago.


The business itself was quite a money spinner and there were quite a few assets (including some busted old 207's). I wouldn't think it'd be too hard to get a fair bit of money out of the place. Problem is, who's going to want to buy flogged out 207's and Airvans. The twins weren't in too bad shape (except they haven't flown for nearly a year)
But yes, if there are any employees left there I hope they get what they are entitled to.

It's upsetting to see what was (under Craig and Gail) a great business run into the ground by complete mismanagement and arrogance!
