Will Hire 400 Workers

And, lo, the clouds parted, the rains ceased and the winds died down. The storm appeared to be over.

Cessna is hiring 400 workers -- many of them who had been previously laid off. Could it be that the dark days which have plagued the aviation industry in an almost Biblical sense have finally passed?
