Michigan's 737-200 is just too old......last time the women's team visited I actually looked around that plane, and the engines must come from the early 80s, silver plated, unpainted engine and totally outdated. That day West Lafayette had a snowstorm and the plane was totally covered by snow. Thought they wouldn't leave until next morning but they still took off that night which from my point of view, extremely dangerous for a medium-range airplane that has been flying for almost 20 years. They should just rent chartered for their teams like us, at least Miami Air is an airline and their airplanes are younger than major airlines. An airline has more experienced flight crew that can deal with emergencies than some of the small air rental companies. Glad to hear that they're okay. Heard they rented an airplane from another company rather than using their old 732 but still, I wish they can learn from the accident.
