Thumbs down AIR BELGIUM

What is going on with this company ? I saw some recruitment ads, but aren’t they about to go bust ? I know a few of their crews are looking elsewhere .

A going concern will always raise more money than one that isn't [Someone will now come up with a counter-example]

I'm sorry to hear that they're having difficulties. I thought business was steady.
