1st ASA 900 ATL Arrival Info?

[777forever]

Since the plane's coming at night they moved the welcoming party to Monday. Anyone have info on the actual arrival time of the plane? Flight number? If it arrives during the weekend I'm sure people will be there to see it. Maybe we can hold hands and sing kumbaya.....

It'll be late due to mx, ATL ground stop, & no catering, lav dumps, fuel, release you know the usual!!!

 

[SPDBRD747400]

Oh and potable water!

By the way:

MESA SUCKS!

 

[bailout]

I cant wait to see the '9' in person.!

 

[rf285]

You have to be kidding right?

 

[rf285]

No one cares.

Oh really? ASA got DC-9's. Cool, I can't wait to see 'em either.

Bout time they got a cool plane.
Im all my years at ASA, the coolest jet they ever had was the BAE146.

I am hoping he was kidding about calling it a "9". Referring to other carriers doing so.

I like the earlier poster suggestion condemning anyone who evenly jokingly calls it "the 9"

He probably was calling it a 9 in a joking manner.
It is funny how some of these punks refer to a long rj as a "9", as if to somehow compare their airplane to a real dc-9. Put them in a real dc-9 and it will kick their a$$.

 

[777forever]

Why don't they just say they fly the 900 like normal people? I have never heard someone say I fly the "7"

 

[McNugent]

you dorks need to get your panties out of the wad over this "9" issue. Who freaking cares!

 

[79%N1]

Almost as cool as the Republic guys that refer to the E170 as "The Mini Bus"!!!

 

[damnflyboy]

1) Can we touch it?
2) Will there be food?
3) Can I use it as a prop in my rap music video?
4) Can I film the video during the ceremony?

Ghetto-booty and sick rhymes will be a-plenty.

Don't worry, I screened the dancers so they won't snort lines on the wings during the ceremony.

Although...that would be a surreal sight to see.

 

[BigPappa]

Would we now qualify as "G-V Playas" or would that make us more like........"Long 9 Playas"?

 

[SiuDude]

It's going to be N131EV, flight 9957 YMX-BTV-ATL. No ETA yet.

Thanks alot!

Calling it the "9" is better than calling it the 90-seater. The only way a CRJ-900 can have 90 seats is if you have 86 coach seats (the most it can have) and you count all the crew seats. But if you count the cockpit J/S it would be 91 seats and you are STILL WRONG.

76 seats people!!

 

[damnflyboy]

I think it's retarded that the customs stop is required in Burlington, VT on the way to ATL International Airport. Am I missing something here?

IIRC it has to do with taxes...The first point of entry into the USA, and where you clear...not sure just what I seem to remember. All about cost, plus short close flight from Montreal.

The flight home has been filed. Just popped up on Flightaware. For all those that said ASA missed the 900 boat, that theory comes to an end tonight!

 

[Abernathy]

I won't believe it till I see multiple write ups on it.

 

[JumpersAway]

On the ground in Atlanta not too long ago.

You mean the guys that fly the 'triple 70'?

Its parked right outside the hangar. Looks just like the 9E 900s except it has a little ASA sticker on the nose. And it has that new plane smell....

 

[trip]

Are these all the "next Gen" models now? They are nicer inside with the bigger windows and overhead bins.
