Because I heard a rumor that ASA might..........underline might........fly E190's. This is what Frontier now wants ASA to fly. Not bait, this came from the training department at ASA. O.k. now discuss.
 
Hmmm, last I heard Skywest, Inc. won that flying. I did hear a rumor that Frontier didn't want to use CRJ-700's but those Emb-170 or 190 and RAH was going to do it. But us (ASA) flying 190's?....that's a new rumor to me.

Nice avatar!
 
I heard the same thing from a senior IP the other day but don't ever see it happening....... EVER.
In my opinion if it's going to be and EMBs then republic would get it and if it were CRJs then we will get it.
 
Seriously though, I did hear a pretty "firm" rumor that Frontier will be starting up a Q400 operation. Separate airline certificate; may or may not be a separate entity when it comes to pilot lists.

If that happens, I'm dusting off the Dash cert and throwing in an application.

Living under a rock, are we????

It's called Lynx (rumor has it).
 
You have a better chance of having Frank Sinatra, Babe Ruth, the Pope, John Lennon, Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster over for dinner at the Playboy Mansion than ASA ever flying E190's for anybody....ever!

What? This rumor has been posted before?

Guess I should read EVERY thread it flightinfo. (I don't think there are enough hours in the day though! :) )

Actually, wikipedia (only slighly more accurate than flightinfo) has some info on this subject.

Lynx Aviation & FrontierExpress

On September 6, 2006, Frontier announced that a new division of the holding company known as Lynx Aviation, would operate 10 Bombardier Q400 aircraft beginning in May 2007 as FrontierExpress.[2] The first Q400 will be delivered in May 2007 with one additional aircraft per month from July through September and two per month from October through December. The 10 option aircraft would be delivered March 2008 through January 2009.[3]
The name plays off of the tail pictures of its planes, specifically Larry the Lynx, and the fact that it "Links" smaller airports to the main Denver hub.[4] One reason for the change is to help reduce costs, Frontier hopes to cut costs on routes 650 miles or shorter by 30%, allowing entry into new markets. [5] It is unknown at this time if the aircraft will have LiveTV installed on board.
The current head of Lynx Aviation is Tom Nunn.[6]

I had LeBrequec on my Jumpseat two weeks ago and asked him about the Frontier flying. He said he didn't think we would get it because it was E-190 flying and they would probably choose someone who is already flying it
