Why is Embrear Maintenance listed in the "service list" on our latest 113A motion?
No flamebait just curious.
 
Embraer is...

contract maintenance in BNA is Embrear. They work on our Saabs there. Don't break out those 170/190 manuals yet.
 
And I always figured they were just taken to the nearest GM dealer. Based on how clean the Saabs are and what my car looks like when it comes back from dealer work. :rolleyes:
 
Ah yes, Embraer in BNA -- It's a popular destination if you're on reserve. I remember pulling up to the hanger and there must have been 15-20 other Saabs there from other operators. I never realized how faded and pink the Saab really was until I saw all of the pretty shiny ones sitting there!

HaHa. I saw an Eagle Saab (not in BNA) not too long ago and that thing was SPOTLESS. Mostly all white paint and not a HINT of grease/soot/dirt streaking. The XJ planes are usually filthy.

Passengers hate turboprops enough, and I sure the last thing they want to see is one in decrepit condition.

I wonder what they think as they watch ole 27 (the last time I saw it) pull up with that big spot of missing paint on the vert stab. I guess at least it is on the right side...

yeah, a month ago i was at BNA and saw some pink (red) Saabs parked at the emb hanger there, i was going to jump on and ask this question..."i saw some NWA painted aircraft at the EMB hanger in BNA, whats up with that?" but in the end, i thought it was too cruel
