MSP will soon be all 7/9 and 175. Skywest is buying endeavor, why else would we get their hanger and expand Cree room into theirs? We are getting 190s for Alaska. And my favorite rumor is.... MSP will be properly staffed and do all its own flying!!!!

MX base does not necessarily mean wonderful things. All you need is a relative handful of crew to fly trips built around getting planes to/from MX (start early, end late).

I heard the whole point of the COS MX base was because it was cheaper as far as taxes etc. than DEN. COS really just fills the gaps in the system. We mostly do early starts and late ends, but we do have some mid day shows and releases sprinkled into the mix. COS base does LAX, IAH, DEN, SLC, and ORD flying mainly. The difference between COS and MSP, is that if MSP were an MX base its still a hub which means all flights would leave early from outstations, arrive in MSP then go out. At the end of the night MSP flights would go to an outstation. This makes for more normal report and release times in a hub. Since COS isn't a hub it's like an outstation with early departures and late arrivals. COS does see a fair amount of midday traffic. Crews from other bases regularly overnight in COS and fly through COS.

Don't forget my personal fav rumor. JetBlue will move the E190 to Skywest including the remaining on order as JetBlue adds more A321s and A330.

Redmond just announced service to PHX on Skywest 700's, so I guess those AA 700's Skywest announced won't necessarily be based crewed out of LAX
"American will use a Bombardier CRJ-700 series aircraft, which accommodates up to 67 passengers. Of those, nine are reclining, first-class seats.
The American Eagle-emblazoned plane will be operated by SkyWest, which also operates United and Delta flights from RDM."
