Thats actually more than a month ago. One is being totally cannibalized. CRJs are as well. Better than spending money on parts.

Ok, got one for you guys to watch out for. Both seats are guilty of this. If you see people doing this, need to stop them before they slam a plane into a cell tower or mountain.

“Descending below MSA on a visual approach at night without briefing MSA or the highest obstacle. Most people I am seeing are descending to FAF altitude 10 miles out on a base leg from the airport at night.”

Oh I’ve seen towers descend you below the FAF altitude. I brief my FO that no we won’t accept that. ESPECIALLY at night.

I know I’m talking to myself. I just checked and I don’t see any evidence that 5 ejets are in storage.

Looking at FT Web, the only thing left is the airframe. Probably a skeleton sitting outside the MX hangar.
