Default ASA ATRs

I read ASA is dropping the ATRs in June or July. Anyone know where those planes are going? I know cargo outfits like MAC probably would like to pick them up, just wondering if any airlines were interested.

Also, for ASA people, what is the average age for those airplanes, and are they all early models or are there some -500s? Thanks

My favorite part about jumpseating in those is pulling out different panels to see what kind of pictures are behind them....

They're going to be some redneck's lawn ornament. There's a reason you can't spot them when they fly over trailer parks.
