What to do about Columbus??

If the CRJ-900 ever makes it to CMH, what kind of range do they have? Could this open up CMH-DEN. And how about the CMH-ATL service that you had prior to 9/11? any chance of that starting up again?

There are doubts that there will be any growth this year. This means Mesa CRJs and the gamut. You must realize that there is a buzz of rumors at CMH and here is what I've understood (this is rumor and not to be taken too seriously): CMH was to receive many more planes from CHQ this year but UA never moved to their new home at Concourse C. CMH needed those gates to expand. UA doesn't have to move as they are in BK. The planes CMH was supposed to get are now going to US Express. Question this if this is true: If UA goes Chapter 7, will HP pounce on their gates in CMH and expand quickly?
 
Big announcement Tuesday 2/11 concerning CMH. Any ideas? Rumor is that Chautauqua is gone in coming months.

The rumor mil is still grinding this, as we speak. If this rumor is true then the CHQ station manager and AWA management at CMH are telling fibs to the workers. They are saying that this is all a terrible rumor and that it is ridiculous. CHQ pilots are saying that they are leaving and that the rumor is true. Who do I believe? Hmmm... Better pull out the old reume building software.
 
Looks like Delta to pick up the pieces
