I'm jealous you're in Pliny country out there! Best thing comparable over here is Victory Brewing Company's Dirtwolf.
It was on a presser from the company today and it's in the travelnet, but you've got to look at October to get the new SEA routes...
Naturally!
I don't think the other shoe has dropped regarding the west coast 717 operation though. They're gonna want to tie it into the eastern operation, and SLC is the only logical place (hub) within range of any east 717 cities, such as STL, ORD, MSP, MCI, BNA and so on... otherwise...
If they don't tie it in, then it's like two ecosystems evolving separately, and you could see the west coast 717's mutate into some horrible, surfer-speak-soul-patch-wearing-tofu-eating-free-love hippyfest, with ties optional and pilots with suntans. Not on my watch. No sir!!

The last 777 newsletter said no mini bases...probably ever. Marketing was too fluid with equipment swaps and would not commit to a long term piece of equipment tied to a specific routing. So, Dtw and ATL for now with deadheads.

Tomorrow is the LAX FLOPs roadshow. I was hoping they would officially announce the new 717 base then, but I don't think it will be officially announced until after the AE is out.
