Default 9L vs C5

Does anyone have any factual (ha ha) information about the reason for the CO SAAB contract NOT being renewed with Colgan and whether or not CommutAir is planning to take over the flying in April?

I have not heard anything nor has anything been confirmed that Colgan will not get the flying.

In fact the last I was told is that Colgan will keep the flying with the understanding that Colgan will replace the Saabs in 5 years with another 34-40 seat airframe.

The CO Saab ops actually runs really good, averaging 99+ CC factor the last 6+ months. Plus, what is the logic in replacing one cheap nasty TP with another cheap and nasty TP

The problem is that rumors spread like wildfire and the next thing you know, everyone is fearing for their jobs before Christmas.

That rumor is no better then the rumor Colgan was taking over Gulfstream's Flying in Florida. Don't hold your breath!

If you actually read his post, it's pretty obvious that 9L is Colgan and C5 is Commutair.

3 posts until someone writes a 4 minute post berating those who use airline codes and wasting his time, when he could have looked them up in 20 seconds.....

Or the OP could have taken an extra 10 seconds and type the actual name of the companies.
