Austin has been growing fast, and I guess has the potential to serve as a
hub, but its metro area is less than 1,000,000, so I highly doubt that the
combined carrier would want to open a hub there.



Austin's Metro will likely exceed 1,000,000 in the next couple of years, and
it's supposedly the US airport with the fastest expanding boarding numbers.
With a new AC nonstop to Toronto and flights to Mexico, it will be a much
busier airport than san Antonio's (in a larger Metro area). With 3 of the
10 largest cities in the US Texas is a formidable travel market.


My bet is this is because there is more business travel out of Austin.
I know I took quite a few trips when I worked for IBM in Austin.
I am sure Dell, in Round Rock, an Austin suburb, does quite a few trips
out of AUS

I am surprise Ultimate Travel doesn't list NW as flying a Red Fokker Dr 1.

Default "Delta" Wins; NWA to Disappear

"Chilly8, Australia's biggest moron" wrote in
:



It must have been only a recent affectation to get rid of the DC10
and F100. I have downloaded yet another updated NWA
schedule for Ultimate Traffic, create by Most Realistic AI,
and it now shows an A330 on SEA-AMS route, but now
leaving at 12:00PM and arrivin in Amsterdam at 6:40 AM
every day, except Friday. The Friday flight leaves at 12:50PM
and arrives in Amsterdam at 7:40AM.


Recent? 3 months is more than recent. NWA retired its last DC10 on
January 8 of this year. Yesterday you were claiming that the SEA-AMS route
was flown by a DC10. As you've been told many, many times, UT does NOT
have the latest data. Even UT says that. You've got to be the biggest
moron in all of Australia to keep quoting it as a definitive source of
information.

As for flight times, UT still has it wrong. NWA shows flight 34 departing
on Friday, April 25, 2008 at 1 PM and arriving at 7:40 AM, just as it does
for Thursday, April 24, and Saturday, April 26. Try opening your eyes
(remember to take your head out of your ass first) and looking at NWA's
schedule if you want to know the correct information about NWA.

Since I DO travel around the world, for my online radio
station, I find UT a MUST, becuase it has MANY airlines
NOT FOND in Expedia, Orbitz, etc. Southwest Airlines is
an example. UT is the ONLY place where you can get
updated schedules for Southwest. Its just a matter of
downloading and installing the lastest available schedule
updates.

More bulls **** by Chilly, Australia's biggest moron. The ONLY place you
can get the latest updated Southwest Airlines schedule is from Southwest
Airlines. No one else will have the Southwest Airlines schedule prior to
it being updated there. The very design of UT requires there be a time lag
from when the airline updates their information and an update can be
applied to UT and distributed.

Only brain dead moron's like yourself don't know to look at discount
airline web pages directly to get CORRECT information about their flights.

I noticed that one "patch" for UT removed Aloha
Airlines. I wonder why one of the sites that update
UT, in between major updates published by Flight 1
removed Aloha Airlines from Ultimate Traffic scheules.

Try reading a newspaper or listening to the news once in a while. You'll
have to take your head out of your ass to do so. This patch by Flight 1
was timely. Aloha ceased all passenger operations effective April 1. From
the Aloha Airlines news release:

HONOLULU Aloha Airlines announced today that it will be shutting down its
inter-island and transpacific passenger flight operations. Aloha's last day
of operations will be Monday, March 31, 2008. On that day, Aloha will
operate its schedule with the exception of flights from Hawaii to the West
Coast and flights from Orange County to Reno and Sacramento, and Oakland to
Las Vegas. Code-share partner United Airlines and other airlines are
prepared to assist and accommodate Aloha's passengers who have been
inconvenienced.

I wonder why NWA got rid of the DC10 and F100
aircraft. The DC-10 is a long range aircraft that can
hold a lot of passengers. I cannot figure out why
NWA got rid of the DC-10

Unless they modified the cockpit to the MD11 equivalent, the DC10 required
a 3 man crew. It might not have paid to update the old aircraft. There
was also a very expensive AD against some DC10's (about $1 million) which
led many to phase them out.






As usual Chilly, your reliance on UT for current information just makes you
look like a ****head.

Or even the Sopwith Tri-plane, which is what led to Fokker to develop
the Dr 1.

Why do I feel a Royal Guardsmen song coming on?

NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR STUPID SIMULATION GAME! NOBODY!

Fokker 100


Northwest does not fly these, you idiot!

Airbus 319, 320, and 330


You accidentally got one right, but you're still a moron!

Boeing 727, and 747, and 757


Northwest retired its last 727 five years ago, you drooling nutbar!

Douglas DC-9 and DC-10


Northwest has retired all of its DC-10s, you stupid halfwit!

One feature can tell me, from the schedules, what aircraft a
particular airline flies, and the afforementione aircraft is what
Ultimate Traffic says that Northwest is using, as of right now.


No, it doesn't. YOUR STUPID "ULTIMATE TRAFFIC" GAME IS INACCURATE,
AND YOU'RE AN IDIOT! STFU AND LEAVE NOW!

NWA has been flying to Bangkok longer than Chilly has been alive. The only
affectation here is Chilly thinking he can think.
