Just a guess, but for now I would say MDP is the only base through mid next year at the earliest. I would guess fall 08 to mid 09 would be a safe bet. BUT it would totally depend on what momma (NWA) wants out of the kids. I think a good indicator would be to listen to what is happening with Mesaba's growth and Pinnacle's happenings...Will they still be flying red tails in a few years? (Pinnacle that is)
Just my 2 cents...nothing to stand on.
