DCI - 100, 50-Seaters and All Turboprops To Go.

[B727FA]

I am pretty sure they have CRJ-700s too. You may want to take that back.


Bye Bye---General Lee

Fleet Transition Plan

In late 2005, Horizon Air announced an order for 12 more 76-seat Bombardier Q400 aircraft. In 2006, Horizon exercised an option to add an additional Q400 to the order. All of these aircraft are now part of Horizon's fleet.

In late 2006, Horizon announced a plan to sublease up to 16 of its 37-seat Q200 aircraft to CommutAir in Platsburgh, N.Y. The first aircraft left Horizon in January, and the rest are scheduled to leave at the rate of one per month from March 2007 through May 2008.

In late 2006, Horizon and Frontier Airlines announced their mutual decision to end Horizon's Frontier JetExpress contract. The return of all nine aircraft that were deployed to Denver will be completed by December, 2007.

In April 2007, Horizon announced an order for an additional 15 Q400 aircraft, with delivery continue through August 2009. As these Q400s arrive, Horizon plans to phase out all of its remaining Q200 aircraft. In April 2008, Horizon announced plans to phase out its CRJ-700 aircraft and move toward a single fuel-efficient, economically advantageous fleet of Q400s.

The larger aircraft will allow Horizon to increase capacity to certain existing markets currently served with Q200s, expand into new markets, and offer customers even greater fare values in the future.
===================================================
So, no, I don't quite wish to "take that back" but amend my post: I *should* have said "I believe the are all Q400 again," as that's where they are going. Score for the General on a technicality. I humbly wither in your superior knowledge. :laugh:

 

[B727FA]

That is NOT correct when it comes to BK. You will LOSE everytime against a judge. And, you still haven't responded to your All Q-400 remark for Horizon. That is incredibly wrong, and your own credibility is suspect for sure.

Bye Bye--General Lee

Relax, Becky...your thong is showing above your tramp-stamp.

I said one never gets what they're worth, but what they negotiate. I never mentioned BK. If you'd take your ativan and not assume everyone is against you (boo!), you'd realize I was, in essence, agreeing with you.

Finally, pipe down on the "incredibly wrong" and how "suspect" my credibility is right now. Your histrionics call into question your stability.

Chill...(though, you're wise to be wary, just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean we're NOT out to get you!

You really are feisty for a stew. Histrionics? Say what? You are making words up now. Your credibility really is sinking to an all time low, even on FI. And, I am not paranoid Silly Sally, actually I enjoy debating people like you. It really is fun and easy. Take a look at Flightaware and see what planes are CURRENTLY flying for any airline. You will easily see Horizon flying their CR7s right now. As far as what they will be flying in the future, you know that changes almost every week. They may say one thing, but then Alaska Air wants them to fly their CR7s to Mexico from LA, and that changes everything. Things change at the drop of a hat. Bye now.

Aww, shucks, are you a real general? I ain't never been in such company. Why fiddle-dee-dee, I declare I'm a blushin'!:blush: Smooches!

BTW:
Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD) is defined by the American Psychiatric Association as a personality disorder characterized by a pattern of excessive emotionality and attention-seeking, including an excessive need for approval usually beginning in early adulthood. These individuals are lively, dramatic, enthusiastic, and flirtatious. They may be inappropriately express strong emotions with an impressionistic style, and be easily influenced by others. Associated features may include egocentricity, self-indulgence, continuous longing for appreciation, feelings that are easily hurt, and persistent manipulative behaviour to achieve own needs.

Sounds like a "real word" to me. Next...I'm done playing with you. Give me a challenge.

Not really a general, rather a Colonel. They call me Colonel Angus. (just like on SNL).

How about knowing which planes are in which fleets? You need a challenge? Go look them up so you can be correct. Until then, learn to debate with facts. And wow, you know some medical terms. That's FANTASTIC. You and Dr. Phil must be close. Go to an Oprah forum and debate the heck out of him. You know those terms better than you know your aviation fleets. I bet you still think Delta flies 727s.

Just cause you want to see it doesn't mean I will show you. Leave me a lone you perv! I don't go that way (not that there is anything wrong with that).

[CA1900]

... all turboprops (Saabs) will be gone in "2-3 years".

That plan worked so well for Continental when they tried it.

Seconded.

Oh for God's sake, 18 CRJ and 37 Q400.

Histrionics? Say what? You are making words up now.

I'm pretty sure I wasn't...oh, that's right, I called you out on that one (like you so cleverly tried to do on the Horizon fleet you little trickster!). But, to your credit, you manned up and acknowledged that you didn't know the word "histrionic." Wait, no...I think you said:

And wow, you know some medical terms.

Apparently you don't know them, eh? Aww, that's ok. We're all here to learn.

I bet you still think Delta flies 727s.

Oh silly boy, the last DL 727 flight was April 6th 2003, GSO-ATL. Now for the cherry on top: last flight op'd by DL was #9901 Ship #590 Dep:1917 Arr:2037 and it took a MX prior to dept. (Were you the switch bitch on that one?)

Facts enough for ya? Honestly, don't you feel just a little silly getting all worked up over "proving" to me that Horizon still ops CRJ (for a while longer)?

Bye Bye--General Lee

But he keeps coming back back.

[ACL65PILOT]

There is a lot going on with regards to this. I think that you will see more than 100 50 seaters gone.

Also, I agree Willy. A lot is coming with regards to this. The wording would have to be so that, it could not just be done by a WO carrier.

I'm going to drop through my hole, dry up in the sun and blow away. Regional thread

Wow, I am impressed. Kinda spunky, and I like that. I look forward to more spirited debates. Looks like your medical knowledge rivials my airline industry knowledge. Well done. Ciao. (and yes, I keep coming back, I actually enjoy this forum and the industry overall)

Fred "Greed" was Fred Reid, our President at Delta at the time. He thought businessmen wanted "frequency", and parked a lot of the mainline birds and then added 50 seat RJs. Fred then left DL to go start Virgin America, where he DID NOT add any 50 seaters. I guess he learned his lesson while watching Delta go down the toilet. Richard Anderson is now trying to clean up Fred's mess.

Wait, was that the sound of your theory going down the toilet? Were you there when Fred Reid made those awful decisions? He never made them at VA---decided RJs weren't right for them I guess. Why don't you explain your above statement so I can dismantle it. Unless, that is, you aren't up for it. (very likely)

Relax... I am just saying that I think Doin Time knows darn well who Reid is, and who you were talking about. Not everyone is trying to start an argument with you, you know...

Maybe because VA pays its pilots flying A320's like they are flying 50 seat RJ's
