We were in DTW on Thursday dealing with a MX issue at the gate (Fenced XJ 200). The mechanic a 20yr Mesaba guy told us they had been told to get the original engines on the correct airframes, XJ USairways Saabs sitting by 21L by Sunday night. Which he said was probably an impossible time line. Those planes have been parked since Xmas I believe. He figures they want them ready to return ASAP after bankruptcy filing. They will use that to break the leases. Anyone else also hear this from MX in DTW??
