My overall impression and takeaway was that Management is very optimistic about FAA response and are expecting an answer as early as Jan 4th-15th, BUT there is no promise and still a possibility of this dragging on further. Cost have been minimized in order to survive as long as possible, based on current funding,
3 months was mentioned as a sort of max/drop dead period.
I did get the feeling that there will be more regular updates expected January, again no promises were made.
while they tried to keep it positive I didn't think they were sugar coating anything.
