Freshly painted Delta Beech 1900s in KICT
 

Just saw several freshly painted Beech 1900s in the latest Delta scheme sitting in Wichita. Several tail numbers ended in CA. There were also several other 1900s not yet painted that had the old Mesa paint scheme. Does anyone know whose these airplanes are and who is going to be flying them for Delta?

They are old BigSky planes!

/end thread. :rolleyes:

yeah old BigSky ones I saw them in CVG around December at the old Mesaba hangars. Not to sure what there doing up in ICT though

I don't think big sky's airplanes were in dl colors, they were in big sky colors

yes many of them were...didnt you see like 15 of them in the NEW delta colors like 8 months ago parked in CVG?

Saw them painted in DL colors in BOS a bunch too.

BigSky had a short stint as a Delta Connection Carrier. They flew out of BOS for a few months, as well as CVG, but didn't last very long. On December 21, 2006, a press release announced that Big Sky would become a Delta Connection carrier, using eight Beechcraft 1900D turboprops out of Boston's Logan International Airport. East coast operations ended on January 7, 2008.

840CA is an old Commutair plane.

They are at ICT because of RAAS.
