It is in between the Humphrey and the fire station where you probably did your "fire training." Just keep going straight instead of taking a left on the way to the Humphrey.

Go to Google Maps, type in KMSP, and select the satellite overlay. Then zoom in until you can clearly see the 3 parking lots on the Humphrey side of the airport. The two lots along Post Road are lots "A" and "B", which is where PCL, amongst others, park. The lot at the very end of 34th is lot "C", Mesaba's lot.

I think seeing it all from a bird's eye view is pretty helpful towards understanding the layout.

Obviously there is an economy of scale by having these departments work both wholly owned regional partners with a high degree of commonality.
On one of my commuting flight to MSP couple of months ago, I sat next to a NWA management type who told me that NWA has created a Mesaba Compass Holding Corporation which will wind up owning and managing all aspects of airline operation of Mesaba and Compass.

yea I saw that...I just noticed it was dated for today.
I wish they would bridge the -200 to MEM too and start serving some southern cities.

I agree. It is always nice to pack lighter on the 4 day trips. It would be great to have an overnight in a city that is above 25F. Serve Mexico too, they will buy.

Ah crap I have been parking in the wrong lot. Do you guys think they will tow our cars out of the A or B lots?

I haven't heard of anyone having problems with "adjusting" their lot. We all have the same stickers and transponders from the Humphrey ramp, and they say that's all they use to identify whether or not a car is allowed.

It's probably no problem.
