Mohawk Airlines Update

October 20th, 2009

I’ve continued rerouting and flying the Mohawk runs after trimming the fleet back from five aircraft to just one. I developed a matrix system for routing that will automatically select a destination based upon current location and which day of the week it is. It’s working much better than before since even though I had five airplanes I wasn’t able to fly on certain days of the week because I didn’t have an airplane in the right place. After going 700k in the red in the company’s virtual bank account I decided to reorganize to the current scheme. So far so good.

I’ve also added some new links on the Mohawk page which show some information about the airline. The developer at VA Financials continues to provide his subscribers with fun and useful tools like this.

Finally, some recent shots of Mohawk in action:

Moving to “position and hold” on runway 4R at Chicago-Midway (KMDW). Can you guess who uses MDW as a major hub?

Landed at KMSP and turned around to head back to KMDW. Northwest has their major hub at KMSP. Here we are tucking gear and getting ready to scoot.
