APPLE VALLEY, Minn. — Is Wings Financial Federal Credit Union still eyeing FAAFirst FCU and Alaska Airlines/Horizon Air Employees FCU as possible merger candidates? Apparently, the Web domain names FAAFirstWings.com and AlaskaHorizonWings.com registered in December 2006 were re-registered on Dec. 4, 2007.

The $291 million FAAFirst FCU and $48 million Alaska Airlines/Horizon Air Employees FCU are the same credit unions that confirmed with Credit Union Times that $1.8 billion Wings Financial had approached them about a possible merger. Both credit unions turned down the proposals.

A search on the Internet name registration site godaddy.com today revealed that FAAFirstWings.com and AlaskaHorizonWings.com were re-registered on Dec. 4 with an expiration date of Dec. 4, 2008.
