PDT/Mesa -> US Airways DHC-8 Fleet Changes
#11
Not to step on PDT lovers toes but who said anything about giving the dash flying in PHX to PDT. I would bet no one gets it. Just like the 200 flying in PHX I think it is just going to go away. After the 200 and dash flying is gone then they will pull the 900's from PHX and send a letter to Southwest saying we are all clear, You can come into all the cities that Airways served on the west coast and make more money.

I really wouldnt put any reasonable amount of assurance on those fleet speculations. They are required and if you look back to CAL's 3rd quarter statement they said 15 Q400's was all they had planned for till 2012 and now three months later they will have 30 by 2012. It is a constantly changing environment and the company can use that to change whatever it wrote in a previous quarterly statement.

I flew the -100 out of FLG in the winter with snow on the ground, 22 people and we were only getting 500 ft/min at 150kts. Don't get your hopes up that you will move into the PHX system, the -100 and -300 would never work out here. We tried it and canned it after only a few months. If Mesa does loose the Dash flying it will simply disappear as all the routes can and do get served by the CRJ. Unlike the east coast where smaller cities are close and abound the west coast (not including CA) is spread out. We are having to fly 2+ hours in the Dash just to find cities to serve.

Yes, the table includes all US Airways Express assets. All of the Express carriers, and all of the equipment that is operated under contract. Colgan Saab's are under a pro-rate agreement and are not included. But DH8, CRJ, and EMB/ERJ equipment is. Covers Air Wisconsin, Chautauqua, Mesa, Piedmont, PSA, Republic, and Trans States assets
.
.
Therefore, those assets would not be included in the filing.
