Default Big Sky/Air Midwest...

With EVERY single RJ operator hiring, there will always be trouble to fill spot on 1900's...

Is this a theoretical question, or is there a rumor here that I don't know about?

And I agree with DME, people would rather fly a shinny jet than a little turboprop without auto pilot. Even for fast PIC turbine time.

Lakes still has prospects lined up for miles...not sure about the other 1900 operators, although I'm pretty sure that Mesa is short-staffed.

The difference between Lakes and Air Middy is that you guys don't have J.O. running the place. I think Air Midwest would actually make a few steps forward if someone else bought the place. It couldn't get much worse.
With that said I guess I know it has to get better soon right?

Well, some days my solace is that it surely can't get worse... Wouldn't trade it for the world, though...believe it or not, these are our "good old days."
