Default Changes we've been seeing in the past month or few

Can anyone confirm or deny any of these? I got this based off 3rd hand information...

Quote:
Expressjet stopped hiring
Skywest stopped hiring
United stopped hiring
Delta stopped hiring
ASA stopped hiring
FedEx stopped hiring
UPS has stopped hiring
Expressjet is offering pilots unpaid leave of absences
United is grounding 15-20 737 aircraft
Delta is grounding 10? mainline aircraft
Northwest is grounding 24 DC-9 aircraft
Regional flying has been cut substantially
Comair, Skywest, Expressjet, ASA, Mesa, and others have had their regional contracted flying hours cut
Aloha Airlines filed for bankruptcy (again)
Skybus cut back almost 50% of their routes
Froniter sold 4 aircraft
Jetblue sold 6 aircraft
Delta information I know (contracting domestic mainline, expanding international) and we've already talked about Xjets COLA situation.....so i know those are right on.
