From what I've gathered, SJU will at first just be 1 Saab with 2 crews, just to establish presence. I don't think our goal right away is to take over for Eagle (although this may happen to be a "coincidence"). I believe we are pursuing our own market for ourselves down there, and then do some of Eagle's routes. And it will be a TDY for now, not an actual crew base.

I am not sure if you have noticed but a lot of the guys that post here from Gulfstream make up Sh!t as they go. Someone posted that they were planing to keep 1 or 2 1900's down in FL as spares as they face in the SF340, I guess they don't understand the nightmare that would be created to maintain crews qualified on 2 aircraft, or maybe they are suggesting they will keep spare crews also! One airplane would be logistic night mare and a huge overhead (for a single ship), the operational fixed cost for other aircrafts will be minimal. Also they have been posting here about the FAA limiting the cycles on the aircraft, I am not sure if those numbers affect a non transport category aircraft! What is happening is that as these airplanes reach their heavy checks their expenses are starting to mount up and with current fuel prices it might be beneficial to fly a larger aircraft when all the numbers are considered!

If you are referring to my post I was as making up **** you are wrong. I'm giving someone who wants to know if they can hold fl base the info that its not going to happen. If you look at coair/united schedules for the next few months they are operating both 1900/saab on fl routes for a while. The main maintence in gnv will repair both a/c , all the 1900 c/k airmen are in fl so its not far fetched but maybe you know better. I hope they phase out all the 1900s eventually but who knows??

Because he didn't make it through training. "Thanks Sporty's!!!"
On Autopilot- I can't tell your tone in your remark. Either you're coming on here bragging that you make $2 more per hour where you're at, or still b*tching because you're sour at Silver for what happened to you (2 months ago nonetheless). Either way, you've got to be kidding me....

You know, you talk a lot of fecal matter for someone who doesn't have his facts straight. I told my story some pages ago. NOW if you were there, and witnessed what happened to me personally then your comments would be valid.
And your DAMN STRAIGHT I will ALWAYS thanks Sporty's since it was Armando Covelli that recommended me to go to MCO. Where you there when that Captain told me the reason I was not going to continue in training? Where you there when Chris admitted it? How was your pre-oral Oh that's right, you didn't get one- no one in our class did except me( though the company said they no longer do that) and despite what others have said- they wanted perfection from me- or to know both volumes 100%.
I also invited the perps that did this to me to come on this forum to defend themselves - not one did. So your point is spreading this info and rehashing this is......................
I will tell you my point, defender of the order of Silver. It was to let others know that despite what happened to me there, things did workout for me and to let others know (like the 3 others who left under not so nice circumstances) that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
You are the one that is kidding me - and others.

Let me ask you something MJ, have you learned yet where one of the static ports is on the 1900? And "...it's on the airplane" is not a suitable answer.
I'm going to quote HeartBreak Ridge: "Don't go away mad, just go away!"
