Yet we won't have an official announcement. Suddenly new to us( or former) 900's will show up on property very silently. This place is a joke. Just announce it already.

Sims support roughly 27 airplanes per box. You do the math... That said, while everyone wants to hear what's going on, I don't envy the guys at ASA who are on the short end of the stick. The worst way for them to hear that their airplanes are leaving is from an announcement here. Let them get the news from their end first.

Don't we have 3 900 sims in MSP? If memory serves, one of them is convertable to a 200.

I know one is convertible but I think there's only two here. Maybe 3, I wouldn't bet on myself honestly. Either way, we've had 81 two class airplanes for several years now. Find it curious we now have a need to support a new sim. Don't wish bad tidings on anyone, just making an observation.

Something is up at EV...management friends are hinting at dumping all DL flying and announcing some new UAL work. And not a slow draw down either...like sub-18 months. Might be a reason for the uptick in 900 support for us.

We do. CAE is building another 900 in MSP as well, and apparently once that happens we would transfer from the new PHX one they just announced to the new MSP one. Shouldn't be until some time next year.

That's nice considering the opposite happened to us and them in CH 11....they announced new planes and we were like WTF. It's obvious what is happening to them there needs no announcement from their end.

Having been on both ends of this whip saw I can say it is no fun when it happens to you.

Best of luck to all at EV.

Yes I know some celebrated when we lost planes to them...keep in mind most did not.

Let's just hold off on all this talk until something actually happens.

Don't believe a thing until it's actually happened.

Anyone know what a/c the new hires got assigned today?

Edit: never mind, just read the other thread. All 900.
