My guess is that MSP DC9 base goes away on the next bid. The Md-88/90 base takes over where the DC9 used to be in MSP

Just got off the phone with the DC-9 Senior Crew Planner. He said that he doesn't think the DC-9 will be on this AE. He agreed that, with only 35 DC-9's left (after October), there would probably be some changes, but is unaware of any specifics and has not heard any rumors one way or the other.

That makes sense!

No reason to have it on this AE when there will be on in Aug-Sept to set up for the other stuff as well.

That would seem logical to me. And, as a new MEM guy who just got out of a nightmare RJ commute to ATL, I like it!

Hope to see you around MEM sometime! I don't look anything like my avatar. I'm assuming you don't look like yours either!!
