feezingflyboy,

You sure do think of a lot of "what if" scenarios. Are you the one who starts all the crazy rumors at xjt, or are you just bored because the pipe is not working?

LOL!!! If ONLY I was creative as some of the looney tunes on the pipe and in the training department. Some of those guys can really spin a yarn!:D

So APC showing 4 Q400's under the Republic fleet..that a new development? hmm

That's Lynx.

Bingo. They've had those Q's since aquiring Frontier. And they've stated they don't want them.

Hint: Republc will get United Q400 flying.

And they're going to staff it with what army?

I'm thinking it's one of the reasons they've been hiring like crazy and offering signing bonuses. I could be wrong though.

they cant staff the planes they have now, let alone another 30.

The Q's are gone, they aren't coming back. United doesn't want them or they would have worked a deal out with the clowns in Memphis.
