Heyas,
Here is the "Secret News":
In an effort to stem the losses from the 787 project, Boeing has agreed to sell Delta the designs, dies, tooling, jigs and remaining parts inventory for the DC-9.
Delta will start up production at MSP, which is why most of the engineering staff is relocating there. It also helps fulfill Delta's promise of jobs in the MSP area.
Delta will call the new DC-9 the "Super Duper Hushed WisperWidgetLiner", to be powered by an unducted fan propulsion system.
In the interm, the Compass Jets, as well as the CRJ-700s and 900s at the DCI carriers will all be annexed, and flown by mainline pilots.
Delta will reassign Mesa feeder flying out of HNL, since they couldn't get rid of them via the courts, and Mesa will ultimately go bankrupt trying to compete with itself in Hawaii.
That is all. Discuss....
Nu

Maybe some new FAA push for rest/duty limit regs comin down the pipeline on the 15th?? That would almost certainly create the need for more pilots

Don't y'all know by now that any "big announcement" in the airline biz is inversely proportional to the amount of hype over it?
Probably be that DS has changed his brand of Gerbil food, although I did hear something about legalizing gay marriage in Ga.

Well that's good news for you guys debating the Star Wars movies. You guys are such geeks. Every one knows that Star Trek was clearly superior to Star Wars!
