I'm guessing it's more to do with which planes are being utalized more and which planes have less spares. In both cases the answer is the 200's. Everything will be "blue tail" soon. The Saabs have needed a new coat of paint for years. No need to go further there, we agree. I get your point and figure that the 200's aren't leaving soon unless they are replaced with 900's. I'd expect the Saabs to be the next plane to disappear from Mesaba sometime around 2012.
