Neal F. Meehan resigned Monday as president and chief operating officer of ailing Midway Airlines, the carrier’s second high-level departure in recent weeks, the airline said.
His departure comes on the heels of that of Chairman Arthur C. Bass, who announced his resignation last month. Both resignations are effective Friday. Bass is to be replaced as chairman by David Hinson, who was among the founders of Midway in 1978.
Under Bass, the airline had expanded into the leisure travel market by acquiring the assets of bankrupt Air Florida. The company lost $15 million in 1983 and lost $7 million in the first nine months of 1984.
