Thanks for the insight. Enjoying the 1900 for now, but if they put me in Saab class, I wont go kicking and screaming. It is what it is. Wont happen anytime soon, thats for sure.

A stabilized approach is defined by your company SOP, and it can vary between fleet types.

I am more curious about the viability of the new Saab operation with Silver. Will they be able to keep them cost effective with the mx costs/up keep.


It seems that Bloch didn't see that one coming...
