Remarks: Well , I did not expect to see this bird twice during our trip to MKE. Took some pictures at take of roll. At the end of our spotting tour arrival to the gate from KCMH.
Remarks: I was surprised to see this here, seeing as Frontier/Midwest/Republic/Whatever discontinued the MKE-SDF route they flew these on weeks before. As it would turn out, the airframe on 271 has timed out, and it is awaiting its ferry flight doomed to be scrapped in the desert. Since flying for CHQ, this one has been passed around between all the big guys, it's worn the colors of America West, TWA, Delta, United, Chautauqua house colors, and finally ended its long life under the Frontier brand. I like it in these colors. Goes out to fellow 1AP member Steve, whose job it is to fly this thing, and who gave me the info on 271.
Remarks: This EMB-145 has worn multiple liveries since she was built in 2000. TWA Express, America West Express, United Express, Delta Connection, and now Frontier Airlines.
