Good Stuff. I'm quite surprised to see PenAir down in the lower 48. Running old Mesaba 340s too. ... if I recall, there are quite a few NWa/Delta SAABs parked up in Bangor, ME. Guess that's where they're coming from?

Good stuff! Nice catch on the Saab 340, definitely an old Mesaba plane. Probably got a picture of it on my hard drive somewhere. Looks much better in that paint scheme instead of the old Mesaba red.

I'm not sure where they are coming from but they are old Mesaba planes. They are going to run on 3 routes that Colgan deemed unprofitable... Bar Harbor Maine, Presque Isle Maine and Plattsburgh NY. The planes will be based and serviced in Plattsburgh.
