Wasn't this plane and crew affiliated with Republic Airways? I know UAL is the fatter target, but why isn't Republic the "offending" party?

Was it a choice between giving a CRJ100 to BCIT or parking it down in some Mojave boneyard? How many are in active service anymore?

The flying public is not well behaved enough these days to trust that they'll be courteous with any use of cellphones for voice communication.

Thanks for that link. Globe and Mail forgot to actually include an image of the new livery in an article about the new livery.

So, that's what? Two outages each for Delta and United in the last eight months? Not good.

That's a rough airport to have confusion in a Cirrus with all that Southwest traffic. RIP.

Why are you so reflexively hostile to people who are noting unusual circumstances surrounding this flight? If it was a different plane than usual, and a larger crew than usual, that's something that's worthy of discussion.
