I drive to work, I should be off reserve here in about a month, and right now, it will probably be a 4 year upgrade for me. Two out of three aint bad, but honestly, a 4 year upgrade is still rather low, historically. We all know and agree that things change on a daily basis, and 6 months is an eternity in the regional airline business, so this is all subject to change.
Yea, you and me both wish Nashville will be a base. I dont think it will ever happen as a crew base, but they are still looking to do maintenance there, so that might happen. That would increase the number of overnights there, which is a small victory id say.
CVG should be closing soon. BNA would be a much better base than CVG.
