Jet Driven:
As far as what ive heard from our MEC side, this is strickly a rumor and the VP of development from mainline held a special meeting last week with all three WO'd. He said that they have no intention of selling any wholly owned and that they still INTEND (big word here) to place RJ's at ALL wo'd. As far as Mesa taking over IND and PIT. Strickly a rumor and nobody will verify it. If I here otherwise, I'll post it.
One thing that was stated by the VP was that he said that all turboprops will be phased out by 2008. Seems like along time for me.
