I feel sorry about the A319 but if the 737-200's incurred more than $99 worth of damage, they should probably total them. (sarcasm... if you didn't know...the 737-200's are so old they aren't worth much than a '77 AMC Pacer)

FlightTracker shows today's flight 661 from IAH-DEN being operated by CCP, with 72Q as the equipment type.
It appears they may be using at least one of Champion Air's 727s while their planes are having the dents removed.
I'm flying the continuation of Flight 661 DEN-SFO tomorrow, so it'll be interesting to see what type of aircraft I end up on.

After a 330 minute delay, Flight 661 DEN-SFO ended up being on actual Frontier metal - 737-300, #317. But that's a different rant for a different thread.
The delay gave me plenty of time to find 3 leased planes at other Frontier gates. They were as follows:
737-800 from North American, #802
727-200 from Planet Air, #742
727-200 from Champion Air, #unknown

Frontier Airlines (NasdaqNM:FRNT - news) on Thursday said it expects a drop in earnings per share for its fiscal first quarter, due mainly to expenses related to aircraft damage and chartering costs resulting from a hailstorm in Denver last week.
