Am I seeing things?

Is it just me or did i see a couple navajos coming out of Ramp#1 in ATL the other day? Thought they were parked at a T gate. Anybody have any thoughts?

Its the new Air France flight from Paris. Those twins save a ton of gas compared to the 74's.

speaking of seeing things..I was at PIT this morning and saw an EMB 170 in midwest colors. I heard about them doing the flying but is that a republic plane already painted up and operational? Was that one of the old frontier scheme planes? I may be behind the curve, havent been to PIT in a while.

the midwest birds are up and flying...was going to work in MCI when a midwest crew saw one of the republic 170's at the overnight with them for the first time....they didn't seem to impressed.
