whats up?
I've been noticing the past week or two that STC has been having some bad times with their flights. Half of the time NW3249 has been cancelled, delayed excessively (today...as in tuesday.. was delayed until 12pm), or delayed/cancelled due to "weather" or Irregular ops. Whats been going on? 
JW, since on the 19th, I have to fly out of STC...

The weather I knew about.. but.. still...
Tomorrows, the 15th... the outbound NW3249 are cancelled as is the NW3252to STC and the return at 440pm.. not looking good tomorrow either. I am just quite concerned, since I am flying on Monday.

RJs used to fly Muscle Shoals - Jackson TN (mkl) - Memphis , real short hops all runways are and were long enough so support is there. But your right the Saabs are the way to go and dont know what they will use.

AFAIK, the MEM-TUP-MSL has been replaced with some version of MEM-MSL-ATL and MEM-TUP-ATL or something like that.
With respect to what will come of the routes after the saab? It seems that if DL can't serve it with a CRJ200, it's getting dropped. Already unable to survive the merger was: LBE and YKF. Down the road we're closing STC, PAH, MKG, CMX and who know what other EAS and small cities we currently serve.
YQT is already 1 daily CRJ and it seems that YXU is seeing some CRJ activity at the expense of frequency. This is the new Delta. Welcome aboard.
