Jay its not the saab, i still fly the saab and other operations dont have on time problems with it, i actually think that silver going to day trips might work, it works for other regionals that focus on a smaller geographic area, ie pen air and ravn in alaska.

They are waisting so much money on hotels its probly amazing, so id say wait and see
