Out of curiosity when I was hired in august there were 49 saabs on property and now we've got 44. With a number of reserve folks getting called up to quebec city I was curious if we got rid of those saabs, or they're just in their heavy checks?

A while back NWA created this company to provide a common entity for the Purchasing/Supply Chain, Finance, Legal and IT departments to support both carriers. Employees that worked in Purchasing for Mesaba, for example, now "work" for MCH.

Obviously there is an economy of scale by having these departments work both wholly owned regional partners with a high degree of commonality.

I am assuming your are referring to this to the 44 "scheduled aircraft" in the news for the crews. That is normal with aircraft held back as spares and heavy checks among other things. Still 49 as far as I know.

I believe this is the difference. If you overstuff your bag you sometimes need it.

It looks like a fake if you ask me. I hope nobody puts their information into it. That would not be good with identity theft and everything.
