well here let me quote it for you.

Due to Northwest marketing changes and delays in turning CRJ 200's over to Mesaba, we have incurred more block hours than our original plan. bla, bla bla, deficit of available first officers, bla bla bla, 150% pay (that no one should take) bla bla bla.

and remember just because you don't know about it doesn't mean it isn't happening. thats why i posted it here, to find out what others see as going on.

and the c concourse is where the avros used to be and i think mesaba still has an ops over there so that would be a perfect place for compass/mesaba to have a base.

and my source seemed like a nice enough guy. we were sitting at the delta gate watching basketball and having some popeyes!
