Why The Video Looks Shaky (Don Ward)
Updated: 06/18/2013 - We did a quick helicopter tour of the Black Forest burn area. Someone asked why the video looks shaky.
Discount carrier Vanguard Airlines has suspended operations. It plans to lay off nearly all its 1,100 workers and will seek Chapter Eleven bankruptcy protection.
The Kansas City-based discount carrier has never shown an annual profit in eight years of operation. A recorded announcement on its reservation line says all flights Tuesday and Wednesday have been canceled, and all other flights scheduled after that have been suspended indefinitely.
A spokeswoman says Vanguard had made arrangements for ticket-holders to buy discounted tickets from Frontier and National airlines, and it is talking to other carriers about similar arrangements.
Vanguard has a fleet of 13 planes serving 18 destinations, including Colorado Springs. There are two daily flights from Colorado Springs to Kansas City. It began service to Colorado Springs just 7 months ago.
In it's 8-year history, Vanguard has never shown a profit. Plus, the company was denied a government-backed loan under a program to help airlines recover after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
