I don't know, but I hope #100,000 is underboob and not DPA vs. DALPA.

Or maybe there will be a major announcement and we'll get a new answer to post #1:

Air Choice One is offering either eight-passenger plans to Memphis. In another option by Air Choice, it would use an 18-seat Jetstream in its second year of service."
I don't see this happening. Josh was my college roomate...he'll find a way to screw it up

I second Check's motion, on the 100,000th post let it be a repost of Guard Dude's original.

How about some rumors? Speculation on 717/A319s? Space Shuttles or Sonic Cruisers? Anything is better than arguing with Carl.
Had fed on jumpseat that works with Delta and he said the 717 deal was supposed to be announced last Tuesday. Apparently we are giving up a bunch of 737 options to SWA in exchange for 717. He said it must have hit a snag since it didn't get announced.

There is a special MEC meeting on 18 Apr. Delta of course does not need DALPA's permission to purchase or sell aircraft or even merge with the likely suspects so it may be just a update on negotiations. Still the company has been very good the last few years about giving the MEC a heads up on their plans.

Seems like we shouldn't have to give up a thing for the 717s especially something so valuable.
