I really don't care if ANYONE believes the incredibly minor fact that Mesaba is getting more airplanes / flying or not but to publically dismiss advance information for no other reason than spite is so damn aggravating and ignorant.



Bored, you're right. Simply trying to put the "haters" in their place only to unearth more.

..and all this dissmissal of information and banter over something so simple and stupid as Mesaba getting airplanes. I didn't know this was so earthshattering.
I'm in the ballpark of being "in the industry" as long as you.....and I could care less if Mesaba gets the planes, 9e gets the planes, ASA or Quantas gets the planes. How does that make me a hater? because I have been in this industry long enough to (1) not believe anything till i see it and (2)don't believe anonymous internet forums. Again, there is no "Proof" besides you all are ramping up hiring.....

again, I could care less if you do get them...congrats if you do, but don't blame the rest of us for wanting more facts before jumping into the pool.....especially those of us that were around when your union put out an "official" memo that mesaba had bought pinnacle....

Oh ok so you have been at 9E for 3 years and been trolling these boards since 2007 and that makes you an expert on airlines?

It appears that most of the people on here that are getting upset about XJ getting more airplanes are from 9E. Bored, DeltaPaySoon I wouldnt even bother responding to these clowns. Maybe we should just wait till there is an official announcement from delta/nwa until you guys say anything else. It appears to me that this "rumor" board is no longer for rumors, only fact.

This is the smartest advice so far in this thread. Too bad the rest of your post was the complete opposite.

There's a pretty cool chuck norris thread going in the hangar talk section from what I hear. I can not however prove whether the information listed in that thread is rumor or real until there is a press conference or some kind of release.

HAHAHAHA thanks man, we appreciate it. Look, we are all pulling for you 9E guys to get a new contract. And we are gonna be happy when you get it done. We wont think you guys are gonna be bragging/arogant about your new pay rates/work rules that will probably be better than XJ's.

...more than that! We need a live video feed with a time / date stamp and picture of the local rag mag covering the election. Once the election is over, we'll need the link to be "approved" for public disection by the new President.

If you can't produce that, it CAN'T be true and I'll ridicule any "propaganda" in support!

**Relax all, comedy purposes only**
