As far as rumors go, they are just that....rumors. No one on here know what is going on, if they did they would be bound by a confidentiality agreement. ASA was owned by Delta when skyw purchased us, so you have no idea what Skyw will do either. Dont worry so much about what people post on these boards. There is a lot more to life than Mesaba or ASA.
To address the 10 900's, our management didnt 'complain', they made a deal. We traded 20, 200's for 10, 900's, but im sure you knew that already. Funny thing about them is that they were 'given' to Comair first, not Mesaba. It's a stupid game that Delta plays that ends up screwing all of us.
We should all be mainline pilots anyway, that is the worst part. Then coming on here and watching pilots drool over a few planes at the expense of other pilots. It is sad. One day you are the bug the next day you are the windshield. I have always found it difficult to get excited about more flying that comes from the demise of another person's job and knowing that soon another pilot will profit from my loss.
