I know as far as the mx side goes; after the DAY Mx base closure, it's all maintain status quo for the rest of 2010. That's a good sign.....for now. No bad; no good. Of course anthing can change at the drop of a dime here!

New seniority list is out.

Attrition was 42 which, oddly, matches the number furloughed since the last list. Which is also close to the number of recalls offered. Leads me to believe we are "right sized" and any recalls will be purely attrition based.

Unless something else happens . . .one way or the other.

"Comair president, John Bendoritis, announced today that the company's maintenance department will be merged with the maintenance department of Mesaba Airlines, Delta's other wholly owned subsidiary. Mr. Bendoritis said, "This is a huge step forward in the efforts of Delta Airlines to completely merge both companies into one wholly owned regional airline." Richard Anderson, CEO of Delta Airlines, stated in a press release today, "We are happy to be merging the operations of Comair and Mesaba into one wholly owned entity. It will allow us to save money by consolidating both airlines, closing Comair's general offices and maintenance facilities in Cincinnati and moving essential personnel to MSP, where they will integrate with Mesaba's personnel, already in place. This new, yet to be named, airline will provide a valuable service to our customers, by providing a seamless transition from mainline to regional flights." When asked about, the now defunct, Mesa Airlines, Mr. Anderson said, "We are sad to see any airline go out of business, but we see no need to replace the lift from Freedom Airlines (a subsidirary of Mesa Airlines). These flights were mainly to serve the Cincinnati market, and since we (Delta) are scaling back CVG operations, the lift is no longer needed." An unnamed source in Atlanta, Georgia was quoted as saying, "I told ya so!"

What are the plans for the cities that currently have SAAB340 Turbo Prop aircraft? Will they be replaced with Jet Service?
