  1. Since I have business degree from UND...I'll pass on your supply and demand lesson. Fargo is also paying airlines to fly to their city the authority minutes reflect that dating back 5 years or more. It is also kind of interesting that Mead & Hunt represents both Fargo and Grand Forks on consultation services. The pool for these consultants is small but isn't there a conflict of interest here? Fargo keeps getting the "wins", yeah there is more demand but at what point does the airport authority say "what we are doing isn't working"? From the outside it seems they are content with a pat ourselves on the back, "we are a Top 25 busiest tower" and "look at our new east/west crosswind runway." They got the small community air service grant which is great but SkyWest and United have yet to say, "we are coming" and time kills deals.
  2. https://www.kfyrtv.com/2025/07/19/williston-airport-adding-third-daily-flight-minneapolis/?utm_source=taboola&utm_medium=organicclicks&tbref=hp Williston will now have as many flights on Delta as GFK. GFK is 5th in regards to commercial daily flights, how is this acceptable for the county and city to keep the status quo?
  3. In 2018, the Big Sky had 4 teams: Montana State 7-4, EWU 9-2, UC Davis 9-2, and Weber State 9-2 (left out: Idaho State and Montana had 6-5 records). In 2017, the Big Sky had 3 teams: Weber State 9-2, NAU, 7-4, and SUU 9-2 (left out: EWU and Sac St. had 7-4 records). In 2016, the Big Sky had 4 teams: Cal Poly 7-4, Weber State 7-4, UND 9-2, and EWU 10-1 (left out: SUU, Northern Colorado, and Montana had 6-5 records). Since UND is essentially a Big Sky school, in 2019 they will be behind these teams: Montana, Weber State, Sacramento State (DII win), and Montana State. IMO The million dollar question is this: Is the Big Sky the strongest FCS league in 2019? If yes, the committee takes a 5th Big Sky team (either UND or EWU (DII win)) If no, both the Hawks and the Eagles are left out.
  4. If all of the Cavalier AFS personnel are at a basketball game who will watch the Russians?

    Onto Sam Houston

    It will be a great weekend...I’ll be flying up to GFK Friday night, tailgate and game on Saturday, after a big win fish Devils Lake on Sunday, and be back at my desk in Scottsdale by 9 on Monday.
  6. Just noticed the Airport Authority updated its website to include a "True Cost Calculator". Allows for simultaneous comparison of airfares out of FAR, MSP, and YWG.
  7. Very true, flew out of GFK on Sunday. Gate agent called for “Sky Priority” and 30 out of the 50 people boarded. I think it’s also worth noting that Allegiant will not be flying Mesa -> GFK in September. I relied on that service to come home for a couple of football games. Adding insult to injury with new Fargo flights, Swoop (WestJet subsidiary) is going to fly to Mesa and Orlando from Winnipeg this winter. The GFK leadership has momentous task this winter to prevent further leakage.

    Not trying look ahead or anything but UND vs NDSU in Frisco
  9. 96.5 FM is the in-arena feed and there is no delay as it re-transmits 96.1 FM simultaneously
  10. Coach Chuck Priore Ed Harris Jake Carlock Fabio
  11. I see, I thought the FAA had issues with the birds from the landfill and the ponds. my mistake
  12. I am thinking this had something to do with it, FedEx started using A300's and with shipping demand going up they probably wanted to fly in bigger planes but unfortunately GFK can't handle them. And the geniuses that decided to wedge an airport between sewage ponds and Highway 2 60 years ago made it so they couldn't extend the runway. FAR Runway 18/36 Dimensions: 9001 x 150 ft. / 2744 x 46 m GFK Runway 17R/35L Dimensions: 7351 x 150 ft. / 2241 x 46
  13. MICH: 29 (National) UW: 41 (National) MIN: 69 (National) DU: 86 (National) CC: 25 (National Liberal Arts Colleges) MSU: 75 (National) MU: 82 (National) UND: 180 (National)
  14. So you saying that AZ should have kept Scott for a weekend of publicity instead of acquiring players that can help them make a playoff push? From a business standpoint I'll take the free publicity and ticket revenue in the spring over this weekend. John Scott isn't going to sell tickets in Phoenix but a winning team will. Just for your knowledge the sports report down here goes as follows 1. Cardinals 2. ASU football/basketball 3. Suns 4. DBacks 5. GCU basketball 6. Glendale Arena Drama 7. Spring Training 8. (If they have time) Coyotes I am for Scott and it is a cool story but I don't think fans would have flocked to the box office to see John Scott sit in the press box at Gila River Arena after the all- star break
  15. not exactly, the city not once but twice stabbed the Coyotes in the back by backing out of the Arena deal. A contract was signed by both parties and then when the city realized they signed a deal they couldn't afford they backed out. Now, they are cancelling the Arena management deal. Ownership has tried numerous times to negotiate in good faith with city but in the end their hands are tied. To quote ownership, "we want to stay but how long can you keep talking to a wall?"
