I heard CAL is looking for a Q-400 operator? Any word on the street? SkyWest maybe?

They definitely are.... In related news, I hear that Horizon just sold like 15 Dash 8's to CommutAir with options for more for their Continental flying.

Skywest has indeed submitted their bid to Continental to operate for them using Q-400s. I know most won't believe this but it's true. This rumor has been going on for sometime and I never believed it until I recently heard someone in management finally confirm this.

Darn, and I was hoping for the Shorts 360.

I was part of a conversation with a union rep of ours at AWAC a few weeks back and he said management asked that the union develop a t-prop pay scale as well as a b-scale. He only mentioned the Q400 Continental flying...and, yes, that's all that was discussed. Not sure how serious AWAC is/was on this topic, but it seems we were interested at one point.
