Default Who might be flying 1900's on delta

I just read an article that my home town of HUF is being looked at to be serviced three times a day by delta using 1900's

Does anyone know who might be doing that

I did not know if anyone out there flying 1900's has heard anything

Pretty sure it is going to be Big Sky Airlines, they are based in Montana, have a base somewhere in Indiana, one in BOS, and are supposed to be opening up one in CVG in August...

Yah, it is Big Sky. The Springfield base looks like it will be moved to Cincinnati and the Springfield runs will be incorporated into that new base (Springfield will no longer be a domicile).

Gotta be hard for the first year big sky pilots in BOS...if i remember right they are right at the 20/hr mark....BOS is not a cheap town

CVG on the other hand...much better...started looking into apartments around here more today...not too bad..

Yup, Big Sky is doing the Delta 1900s out of Boston at least. A couple guys from my company jumped ship to go there as street captains because they are apparently having trouble with F/Os not having the ATP mins yet...

There are a lot of Big Sky FOs that have the time to upgrade, but many of them are based in Billings and if they upgrade, they wouldn't have the seniority to stay there. Most of them don't upgrade because they don't want to commute or move to Boston. Billings is a very different place than Boston, I would much rather be in Boston than Billings, but that is just me.

I'd prefer the opposite myself.

I'd much prefer Montana.
