Any word on any other stations?? Such as TRI......ROA.....CRW?? I guess it doesn't really matter, but will be hard to see the people that we have gotten to know at outstations get replaced by the next group of people willing to work for less....wow they must feel like pilots!!!

TYS, for example, currently has 9E and Comair...one has to go. It could be both and Mesaba could come in and take it all over..who knows.
I wonder what will happen to the MX facility at TYS should Comair win? That's a nice hangar!

The other 18 ASA stations will find out in mid-Jan I wish them the very very best, Because there going to need it. I would not be surprised if they lose all 18. Delta is looking at just about one thing money. And Comair Pinnacle operate very cheap because they dont pay there employees very well. After those 18 stations are done, Big Daddy Delta will will look at more. I would not be suprised if in 2 years all ASA will have is Pilots,F/A Mtc and the G/O people.

Yeah well that was property of MAIR Holdings and didn't get transfered in the sale to Northwest, hence why the Big Sky 1900's were being stored there. But since MAIR holdings is defunct, it is and has always been KCAB owned. They want a hefty sum to rent it out. We've tried to get them to drop the price, but Delta doesn't want to pay it...yet.

9E had ground ops in AVL, too...I don't think it really matters who has what at the current moment, depends on who Daddy Delta wants.
TYS, for example, currently has 9E and Comair...one has to go. It could be both and Mesaba could come in and take it all over..who knows.
