Really?

I had no idea Eagle did any flying for Daddy D...wow

They don't. They do codeshare. A bus takes you from T-5 to the Eagle's nest.

That would be good for who ever gets it. The flying out there can't be beat. But if it ever happens, I doubt it will be on the scale that it was.

XJT's presence out there was nothing more than XJT being at the right place and right time with airframes needing to fly, and DAL needing a placeholder on those gates. A placeholder that they were able to get a rock bottom/dirt cheap price.

Eagle also codeshares with NW, AS, and CO.

Yes, but you're not flying "for" DAL, NWA, AS or CO. AMR is just allowing them to sell "through" tickets on American flights. There is a slight difference.

No, but they are the last Major airline to use them. They are paid for and fuel efficient. I don't see them being replaced until the economy starts moving again.

Is it true that the E120 is type certified for single-pilot operations?

No, it requires 2. The capt cannot reach the alternate gear extension handle from the left seat.

I think I can reach it. Sure, that's the one.

Last time I tried to reach for the FF gear bar my FO slapped me. She then said I had to buy her dinner first. :eek:
