Midwest E190 Goes Frontier
I know I'm late on this one, but the first E190 from Midwest has been painted in Frontier colors. The tail of N174HQ is adorned with the Wisconsin Badger (consequently my Mother's Alma Mater). The aircraft entered service with Frontier earlier this month as the Milwaukee-based carrier makes its transition as Republic begins consolidating its myriad of brands.
