That's SBY/ROA/MDT, correct? You might be able to fill one 175 with all of the pax from there.

In all seriousness, though, does Piedmont management really think that AA would route 175s through SBY for maintenance?

For outsiders-

The joke is that TRI shows up in our online bid forms and seniority list as a base, but TRI is just a placeholder for everyone who isn't a line pilot i.e. sim instructors, ground instructors, management etc.

Since actual KTRI is such an awful airport and awful overnight it's been a running joke that we're actually getting a base there.

TRI is one of the best overnights we have. Simple, quiet, 5 minutes to the airport, free coffee.

I don’t thinks it’s a real La Quinta. It’s not even next to a Denny’s...
