Question Is Gandalf Airline still alive

Is Gandalf still alive?

I heard that the chief pilot was fired, and that the president is gone?

Gandalf is still alive but seems to be on its last legs. Passenger loads are real low and airline losing US$3 per month. Last a few people were layed off and up to a third of the employees will be made redundant by the end of September. They are presently going thru a restructuring phase which includes reducing the fleet from 11 to 6 aircraft. The goal of this plan is to revive the company.

Aviation analysts forecast is the plan will not work.

Rumour says that the whole operation was just a financial one with the 3 founders already having pocketed a nice lump sum each together with the initial investors.
