Not taking over, all the 190's flying for F9 are part of the code share.

F9 will move some 318's into MKE and 190's will go to DEN to cover those.

Also...Monday November 2, will be the last day of Midwest B717 service

Now I am not saying I am happy with what is happening with YX, I am not. I feel all the YX agents should be able to keep their jobs, who know how the airline runs.

It does sadden me, that people I deal with in MKE who have been with YX 20 years are unemployed, no severance package, while the F9 ...

Here is a very good and sad article on ComAir.

Very sad to see how the once leading regional in the US has shrunk. I will always be grateful for being able to work for ComAir, and them allowing me to become a Aircraft Dispatcher with the company, and being there for the arrival of the first CRJ in ...

I am deeply saddened by this announcement, and yet, I understand where Aaron is coming from in this decision.

This site will be deeply missed by many

And vice versa, I hope Delta, is doing that with Northwest. Which from all reports that is happening

I see people insult Republic all the time about the Midwest and Frontier purchase. Midwest employees killed the airline themselves, long before Republic entered the picture. The YX pilots were ...

Any Spotters in DTW, please feel free to join me and other spotters on November 22 or 23 for a spotting excursion and farewell to Northwest Airlines, and my 45'th Bday celebration.

Staying at the Comfort Inn at Metro on Wick Road, and looking forward to some great spotting

We are basically getting them free, since Airways owes so much money, it is part of the loan repayment

This was just announced at 2:30pm today

It is just a earlier concept of code share before deregulation

This sorta of operation was done alot in the 1960's. DL did it with PA and I believe Braniff

Here is the release from the employee website concerning the F9 and YX codeshare


Airbus A319s Coming to Milwaukee

To: All Midwest, Skyway and Republic Employees
Date: September 21, 2009
From: Greg Aretakis, Vice President of Planning and Revenue Management YX
Jim Reichart, Director of ...

But Aaron, being a aviation geek and a lover of the glory days of air travel, could you imagine how beautiful a Boeing or Airbus would look in the old Chicago-Southern Scheme

With the rich aviation history of both DL and NW, it would be nice to see DL do a heritage theme like US Airways did when they merged with America West.

DL has merged or bought, Northeast (yellowbirds), Western, and I believe it was Chicago-Southern, and also a little tribute to Pan Am

NW ...

Well the DL 767-200 is the Spirit of Delta, which the employees bought and is on display at the museum

But yes that is a rather sad display

It is like when AA bought TWA, there was a 1/50'th scale DC-3 in Ozark Colors in the STL maint base, and it disappeared

Thanks Dennis

Doesn't it provide some nice info and you can download the old color schemed aircraft and fly these routes

Here is a great website of old airline schedules for those of us who like to fly the old flights and aircraft on our virtual airlines

If I am not mistake though Aaron, the 2 cities cut, Grand Junction and Steamboat Springs, really were not living up to expectation passenger load wise

Very Strange about the daily service to Cancun, I do not think IND can support such service, maybe I am wrong. STL on the other hand with the loss ...

It appears Delta is going to keep the NW history alive at their Heritage Museum

You missed the days of Herman, it was beautiful. Very sad when Republic did away with the logo. But when the NW merger took place seeing the Convair 580 in NW colors. I actually flew on 2 of them from DAY-DTW and back ...

Rumur has it Frontier will be announcing new routes very soon.

Rumor is resuming the IND-CUN and STL-CUN service

Also noticed on the F9 route map, on their website, it is now reflecting the code share routes with Midwest out of MKE
