Yeah, and when did they start flying Cessna 210s?! Did they merge or have a partnership of sorts with Flight Express? I believe their Lear fleet still exists, just not in the numbers they once were. I think the new company that bought them, Bayside (or something like that) changed Air Net a bit. Sad.

I thought Air Net and Flight Ex were about the same company....

I do believe Airnet aquired Flight Ex. But I don't think either had MU-2's before. I believe Flight Ex had C-210's & Baron's.

Johnso is correct Flight EX has both 210's and Baron's but I think they were slowly drawing down on the Baron's as year's went by.

The 900's will be used for 2/1 or 1/1 with the 200's so no, goget won't be getting any at this time.

I'm still wondering where people are finding language in the Delta TA that guarantees a regional 900s just because they are flying 200s presently. All the TA says is that DELTA can replace 200s with 900s at a 2 for 1 ratio. How Delta chooses to do that is up them. If they want to allow a contract to expire, buy it out, or find language to screw a regional partner, they don't have to replace a regional's 200s with 900s. They could tell one regional to park their 200s, and send the 900s to a regional that they feel works out better for Delta. There is nothing guaranteed in any of this, except Delta will do what it thinks is best for their bottom line.

Delta gave birth to the downward spiral of hub feeding regional jets. They allowed the first order of CRJ100s to come onboard back in the early 90s and the rest is history. I have to wonder if they'll ever have any success reversing the trend they created or just continue aiding the demise of the industry.
