Default CRJ 900 DFW Emergency

Saw a 900 this afternoon parked just off 17R with Tons of emergency vehicles, and busses for passengers. Plane taxied clear on its own to B terminal, but unsure if PAX were on busses or the plane. I guess it was precautionary but unsure what for. Curious if anyone can share what he nature of emergency was.

Gonna guess it's 907. Which is currently down for smoke in cabin on takeoff roll.

If you try to pick up a trip, but FLICA denies it because it ends on your BDO, what do you do?

Flica doesn't deny stuff because it touches a day off. Pretty much everything one picks up touches a day off. There's more to it.

Just curious on why people hate on Mesa so much? looking into going there due to their IAH base, shorter reserves than other regionals, and quicker upgrades.

Hate - pay and whipsaw.

Short reserve time in IAH? It's relative. Relative to what it was 2 years ago - zero - it's long now. 5-6 months though I expect it to come down. Want to fly immediately and a lot? Go CRJ.
