I asked PL point-blank about that during recurrent in July. He wouldn't let on about any details. However, he did talk about there being an option of refitting B-models with B+ interiors, giving them the option of buying Colgan's old birds if they are out there. Be interesting to see what plays out for 3M.

From what I've heard, Colgan's birds will need a lot of work put into them.

Well the Mesaba airplanes we got needed a lot of work too!

ANY airplane that has been sitting in storage for an extended period of time is going to be in need of a lot of work...Even if it was delivered from the assembly line directly into storage...

Hope u like instruments in different places from plane to plane! Mesabas were waaaaaay better than ours and a lot lighter.

Very true...but, that isn't all that uncommon in the industry within fleet types...

So the flight attendants got an email saying February 1st for Hub basing.

$10 says Feb 1 turns to Jul 1 then "Fall 2014"

It seems simple enough, but it is likely that date could very well be pushed back as you indicate as there will be issues with relocations.
