Looking for answers at ASA

[Tomct]

Heard from one of the chief pilots that the E170's that are at shuttle america were suppose to come to ASA, but we were LOW BALLED! They only make what our 50 seat guys make to fly those things....apparently! I think that we will see more growth and it is going to be with 70's or bigger! Not necessarily a good thing! Take that FWIW!

...just to veer off the RJ for a minute...we have 12 ATRs and we own 4 of them, the others are leased...of the 4 owned ATRs we have, 640-643...we've noticed the registrations are now the temp. pink ones with a new owner...and that would be Delta Airlines Inc.

What does that mean.

my guess is when the leases are up on the other 8...if they get rid of the ATRs, DAL would lease 640-643 and make a few bucks off them.

I think that means Skywest did not want to own them.

That's what ATL needs . . . more flights. Aren't you guys pretty maxed out on gate space already?

They don't need no stinking gates. (Said with a heavy hispanic accent)
