It's should be officially news releasable tomorrow morning. I'll post there in the morning. Thanks for clarifications which specific new routes from DEN. I will find out which frequencies will be changeable at DEN.

Looks like Lynx got more Q400 planes, turboprop ho...........

Also, F9 will adds some routes from DEN-ANC/YVR during summer seasonal.

Here I have some of those flight scheduled subject to change without noticeable. Here it is:

Key: M = Mainline Airbus service
L = Lynx Q400 service
R = Republic E170 service

Thanks all. :)

They still only have the original 10 and will into at least next year. There will be some shifting of aircraft around the system to better match demands and to free up thre Q's for the mountain service.

I have been heard F9 has been discontinuation some routes from DEN-PBI/BTR. Because its didn't last longer. Also, both RSW/JAX will shifting to seasonal but, it will be not operate for summer seasonal. Hopefully if F9 will continuation to service for JAX & RSW during winter/fall/spring.

Bozeman is a good destination city for getting to Yellow Stone. Woot!

If I'm considering DEN-JAC and the choice is F9 on a Lynx or UA on a mainline A319...guess which one I'm choosing?

(Assuming it says on the runway, of course. :D :D :D)

Whichever one is cheaper like the rest of the country would?

I don't think you have much to worry about, assumming UA doesn't wire the antiskid wrong (again):D

SAFETY BOARD ISSUES UPDATE ON JACKSON HOLE RUNWAY EXCURSION
************************************************** **********
In its continuing investigation of an incident in which a
United Airlines Airbus A-320 jetliner departed the runway
during landing at Wyoming's Jackson Hole Airport on the
evening of February, 25, 2008, the National Transportation
Safety Board (NTSB) has developed the following factual
information during its on-scene investigation.
The airplane came to rest 116 feet past the end of the
runway and 140 feet to the right of the runway centerline.
A heavy skid mark was found on the runway associated with
the inboard tire of the left main landing gear. This tire
was found deflated and showed wear consistent with a skid.
Upon exiting the runway, both engines ingested snow and
sustained internal damage. The aircraft itself was not
substantially damaged.
Examination of the left main landing gear brakes revealed
that the inboard and outboard wheel speed tachometer wires
were cross-connected. Such a configuration would be likely
to cause the antiskid system to use the inboard wheel speed
to control the outboard braking, and vice versa. In such a
situation, it would be likely that when the inboard tire
began to skid, the antiskid system would release the
pressure on the outboard brake instead of the inboard brake.

Examination of maintenance records indicated that both main
landing gear units were replaced on the incident airplane in
early February 2008. The Safety Board is also investigating
another United A-320 incident with similar circumstances
that occurred on October 9, 2007 (see CHI08IA026 at
http://www.ntsb.gov/ntsb/brief.asp?ev_id=20071023X01635&key=
1).
Another area of the investigation is the inoperability of
one of the emergency evacuation slides. The slide at the
front left door deployed when the door was opened during the
evacuation but did not inflate. The manufacturer of the
slide will assist the NTSB in its investigation of the cause
of the failure.
Information obtained from the flight data recorder (FDR) and
the cockpit voice recorder (CVR) is being analyzed at the
Safety Board's laboratory in Washington.
Investigators are continuing to gather factual information
in aircraft performance, human factors and other areas.

I suppose that they're going to try and compete directly w/ UAL from COS?

If I'm considering DEN-JAC and the choice is F9 on a Lynx or UA on a mainline A319...guess which one I'm choosing?

(Assuming it says on the runway, of course. :D :D :D)

Agreed. But, what if the choice is a Lynx Q400 or a UX CRJ?

Now we have a ballgame...

Agreed. But, what if the choice is a Lynx Q400 or a UX CRJ?

Now we have a ballgame... Non sequitur. In the off seasons, it looks like the choice will be the Lynx...or a Dash-8 operated by (shudder) Mesa! F9 will win the offseason for sure. Unfortunately, the offseason for DEN-JAC is really only 3-4 months out of the year. Most of the time, I'd choose the A319 mainline.

i wonder if F9 will ever go to TYS...probably not
