They still only have 2 CRJ200s, but it's soon to be 17. They're adding 2/month. Mesaba maintenance is configuring them as they arrive.

I'm in week 2 and the impression I have so far is that they don't have enough people to fly these things. All of them will be based in MSP flying routes the same (I believe) routes that Pinnacle flew with the planes. Reserve time will be short if any. I'm worried about how long I'll sit before IOE (maybe 30 days) , but after that....we'll easily bank near 100 hours. That's the impression I have any ways.
