Trans States announcement?

This MUST be it:
Four Chinese airlines agree to study St. Louis-China trade
So when TSA said we're getting these mythical MRJ's they meant MU2's so we can feed Air China's new cargo base in STL. Back to flying STL-COU, but this time in a MU2. Add a dash of our maintenance reliability and a sprinkle of management incompetence and this could turn out to be the most embarrassing venture we've tried yet! Like attempting a takeoff single engine and lying about it.....not like that would ever happen!
Rumor mystery solved!

umm.... that's nice of him to share this super duper secret info, what else did you guys talk about??
Did he incidentally drop anything about who they're going to fly the Japanese jets for, or in which continent for that matter? Remember, the perfect time for managment to start rumors for the sheep to dwell on is right when they're about to be released.

By my calculations that should speed up RAH's BK filing and massive furlough by about 6 months.

Only TSH management would be the launch customer of an unknown airplane corporation like Mitsubishi, and for an airliner too. Especially since Mitsu is drawing from the experience of such hits as the MU-2 and the ZERO, which was very useful as a projectile in WW2.

Mitsubishi did design and produce the Diamond Jet. You may recognize it now as the Beechjet or Hawker 400XP. Say what you will about some of Mistu's other creations, but that is a pretty popular airplane.

If I'm not mistaken the original Mitsubishi Diamond was the one that kept crashing in icing due to controls freezing up. They changed some of the design with the beechjet/hawker.
