The company opening and closing bases at hubs or not is far from a new thing. A hub is just as likely to close here as an outstation. Also the senior captains that bid out show literally nothing. A few of them are sim check airmen that bid sdf because sdf offered them the best sched to maximize their pay while driving the sim. Another was a long distance commuter. Add to that the fact the 145 has been announced to be leaving, and it should come as no surprise guys are bidding off. Dont want to be the last man standing at this company.

The bottom line is the company just renewed the contract with the city. Sdf will continue to be a crew base in some capacity for a good while. Next summer ill be waiting on that round.
