From what I have noticed MDA will begin flying the 170 in July between PIT-DTW/BUF and DCA-ALB/BUF/SYR/MCI. Except for PIT-BUF, I think everything else was express already.

I've lost track...how many planes does MAA have now? When is the next delivery supposed to take place? And for the last time, is it MAA or MDA? For cryin' out loud.
Currently 8 aircraft. I don't know when delilveries are scheduled.

About one new EMB-170 aircraft will be delivered per week between now and the end of the year, unless GECAS pulls their financing.

GECAS is only providing financing for about 30 aircraft which Embraer has said they would pick up if need be....

This may be a dumb (and/or obvious) question for many, but I would like to know what happens to the Embraer division if bankruptcy occurs again. Will they stop taking deliveries of planes or does bankruptcy mean that everything comes to a halt as far as MAA goes? I'm not up on that type of legal stuff. :huh:

In a bankruptcy filing MAA is a part of the company and as such, will be part of the debtor.

Presumably, GECAS would hold deliveries until the outcome was clear.
Clear, in the event that it happens, would be completely up in the air.
I had DTW-PIT on Mesa (IIRC) some time back--presumably MAA is an upgrade in service.
I take it that US can slide -170s into DCA in "express" slots?

It seems strange to me that U would have ONLY EMBs on PHL-IAH. That's a pretty long flight, and I'm sure some pax appreciate a first class cabin. But maybe the other shoe is going to be Airbus/737 from IAH to LGA/BOS/DCA/CLT.
I do like the increase in mainline at MSY, but that's another thread. Are some of you more convinced that U is actually going to implement a new business model, or do you have more objections? Don't answer that, it's rhetorical.

Yes, that was the big bone thrown to US in Vision 100.ClueByFour said:
