With all the DC9's we are parking these 90's will go to MSP and the DC9 MSP base will close this summer.
hmm, i figured MEM would get hammered when the 30's/40's get parked in Oct. Maybe they'll shift the DC9s out of MSP to MEM and MEM will do alot of the DC9 flying. Who knows
OOOOOOO, AMR is gonna be P.O.ed. Their presence in the Pacific just went down the drain.
Moral of the story....don't outsource mission critical items. That goes for everyone.
Watch out ALK, you're now in play. Good luck.
Nu
DTW dc9 shrinks 35% over what it is today. MSP dc9 will turn into all 88/90. I don't know the effect on MEM.
Now we know why NWA is going to train 30 crews a month on the 744 for the next 18 months! YIKES!!!!
Where did you get this number? Hope you're right. Are we definitely getting a new 747 sim??
If so, you might want to put XM radio and internet on those -9's to compete.I'm no expert here, but I would put the 88/90's in MSP and DTW, close the MEM DC-9 base, then move all the -9's to ATL. Then I'd put a -9 on every route that Airtran flies with a 717.

So does this JAL deal mean hiring for Delta?
Must be why RA said, "No. Never," when asked about a DFW base at a recent on-line chat.
They really do not need to hire this year. The only reason to do it, is to be prepped for next year. There will not be too many major changes that they can make to the summer 2010 sked. Maybe a few more cities in Asia, but it appears that may be set.
As Monster is stating:
Wavering on a DFW base, and putting 90's all up North. Who knows it changes hourly some times.
