Commutair

[blee256]

I heard Commutair is getting Saab 340 or the Emb120 in early 05. Has anyone else heard of this?

Loooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng rumored, but no news. Correction, the company says it will either be the Saab 340B+ or Dash 8 Q200. No EMB-120. But they have been "just around the corner" for at least five years. Not holding my breath over any of it.

Sounds like Corporate Airlines.

Suppose to get SF34's aaahhhhh..... 4 years ago

Perhaps... But does Corporate Airlines have a framed shot of the Saab 2000 over the toilet in the men's room outside of their dispatch office?

Dude your so wrong!! It's been well over 10 years.

Nope. Good Point.

Does that mean since we have pictures of B737's and ERJ's in AA colors that we'll be taking delivery soon??

Hence the words "at least" before I said five years. Can't speak of anything beyond four or five years ago.

I agree with Auto Bus, I was a previous employee at Commut Air a long time ago, great airline back then.!! However those rumors were around back in the mid 90's.
Believe it when you see it.

CommutAir has placed a bid for the Continental IAH flying using Saab 340 B+ and they are waiting to see if they get it. Cape Air and Gulftream are also rumored to be bidding on the flying. Heard 10 aircraft and 17 cities. Apparently SkyWest wants out.

Sloan, what airline did you move on to?

I see someone has been paying attention in class.
