They even started repainting them and dang, they looked as sharp as IFL's DA20's.

Ha i wish there are no more kits avaliable. If someone else wants a garret powered freighter they have to buy a corporate one rip out the interior and put a door in. Not to many people out there willing to spend $5 million on a freighter, especially in todays market.

Hi!
Error in my previous post.
I was talking about "Trans North Aviation" and somehow got them mixed up with North Country. TNA is based in Eagle River, WI.
Sorry, I guess being laid off has scrambled my brain???!!!???

Mesaba is good. Yea I would have for sure liked it more the way it is now then when I was there but I'm happy at XJ. They treat me good, living 15 minutes from DTW and I get 1 1/2 hour call out so its cake even on reserve. The CRJ-900 keeps me on my toes, great airplane. Who knows when I'm 23 if I'm not close to upgrade I might start considering options. Shouldnt be a problem but 4 1/2 years and thousands of SIC hours might be my breaking point!
