No, I don't beleive the doors are closed. They have laid off pretty much everybody, except the people required to run the flight school. I think that they are deffinatly hurting though, probably trying to down size like many other operators, and waiting for the flying season to get started again.

I worked at ateway for a long time and was one of the poor souls to be laid off. They kept just enough people to keep things going. All the machines were up for sale, but not all the machines are sold. They will be operating a small fleet this summer. They are in the same boat alot of other companies are in. Hopefully the minning market will bounce back sooner than later and things can get back to normal. I wish all the guys and girls at Gateway the best of luck and had tons of fun working with all of them. Tell your friends when they say Gateway has closed the doors that that is "Inncorrect" they still got the doors open and things are turning around slowly. Hope everyone else is making it through these hard times. Chopper_Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
