Default CAL dropping 9L rumors???

Anyone else been hearing the latest and greatest rumor that CAL will be dropping 9L entirely at the end of July? I'm not much for rumors, but I thought this one was pretty good, haha, and I work for 9L.

They're going to stop using runways designated as 9L? You work for a runway?

Yep, it's true; they're replacing them with Aeromexico under their new Star Alliance agreement.

I assume if that were true then CAL wouldn't be conducting a CRM/TEM course for Colgan Pilots to aid in the new CRM training Colgan is developing.

Pardon my lack of grownupness/professionalism.. Yes I'm referring to Colgan being dropped by CAL.. I don't pay much attention to rumors but this is the best one I've heard in a while.

The problem is with rumors is that they are just that...rumors. We should stick to facts.

Plus CAL dropping Colgan in July, sucks for my July line I was just awarded.

The other rumor is the Colgan Q400 makes almost double the revenue of an expressjet E145 for about half the cost. I've heard they actually want to get more.

Looking at Colgan's contract that's not hard to believe.
