Default Colgan Chicago flying?

I've been reading the rumors on the possible Colgan flying in ORD and today I saw on a flight tracker that a 1900 flew from ALB to RFD (Rockford, IL). Not sure if it means anything.

RFD is a maintenance base for the 1900 a lot of operators go there.

Do you mean Air Midwest got new 1900 flying or Colgan's existing routes? If they got routes in IL, it probably wouldn't affect Colgan because the rumor is they would fly SAAB 340s for United

That's interesting Colgan would go there because they have their own maintenance bases.

Yeah, you are probably right with all the SAABs they have now. Just seems odd with HEF, HYA, and ALB all 1900 maintenance bases.
