How about a simple answer. YES, Mesaba is flying out west from DLs SLC hub. As mentioned, no new crew bases are open as the flying is supported by the current bases.

JFK is simply a rumor.
AMEN

The flying is owned by Delta not by Mesaba or Skywest who knows how long XJ will be out there!! As we have seen with Delta everything is a rumor until you get the printed release in your hands. Every pilot group I think understands that they are at the mercy of Mother Delta and the flying/airplanes that they "own" can be gone any second.

This is my standard response to the skywest jumpseaters that feels it necessary to educated me on the fact that we are just filling in for them on a temporary basis.
