David Walker Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Right now Bombardier is just suggesting grounding sixty of the one hundred and sixty currently flying, only those aircraft with more than ten thousand cycles.

dylan Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 TWO of these in less than a week for the same airline sounds like more of a problem with the company than the aircraft. Link to post Share on other sites

Karl Sander Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Sweet. I know Horizon grounded some of theirs - which is music to my ears because at some point in the last 9 months or so they changed the Reno-Seattle route from Alaska 737s and MD-80s to Q400s. Which is not good for Kolja. The Q400 is great for short hops like Seattle-Bellingham, Seattle-Spokane - but Seattle-Reno is too long for anyone who's 60" inches around the shoulders to be in those little seats. To say nothing of the fact they don't recline... Flew one Sunday night back from Seattle and my back STILL hurts. Worse than ejection seats. Link to post Share on other sites
