i flew on this bird today with Delta (N777NC)!! Couldn't help but notice all of the doubler plates, but nevertheless my ears didn't pop and i could hardly tell it was 32 years old!
I rode one of those a319 and a320 as well as the crj900 back in sept of 08. The Airbuses were roomier but the CRJ900 was definately my fav. The engines had an odd, oscilating sound to them and that little plane felt like a rocket.
they are going to start using the new crj's they got. the flight schedule was cut recently and they are going to start phasing them out soon. mesaba runs the crj's so they are picking up some of the flights i believe.

they are about to start getting rid of them. I'm kind of glad because those are my least favorite to work on. they are too small.

Do you know what they're replacing them with? A319's?

That'd be the 900's, right? That'll be nice, those planes are great!
jbrollercoasters 4 years ago
yea the 900's. they are nice planes. the 9's are so old but they are still good planes though.
jslack05 4 years ago
I agree! It is great they are still flying them! Talk about a workhorse.
