did they safely make it into Hayden? Sounds like it was a good alternative. Does Laramie have equipment to handle a 175? What was the weather like in COS? Was there any ramp space anywhere else?
I don't have a problem with a successful unplanned divert.
I do have a problem with posting stupid stuff where the media can get hold of it and manipulate it to their agenda..... with the flying public interpreting what news writer interpreted .... from a poorly written facebook post.
For this crews, and Skywest's, sake I hope they deadheaded out instead of flying pax out.
