Pittsburgh

One route that I've forgotten to mention before (because I thought it had been dropped) is the SYR-Pittsburgh route which US Airways Express/Colgan Air flies with Saab-340's twice a day. This route and is leftover from the days when US Airways had a major hub in PIT and was once flown by mainline jets up to five times a day. Nowadays these 2 flights are the only ones from Upstate New York to PIT as Buffalo, Albany, and Rochester don't have any flights to PIT.
In an airport related event, a firefighter accidentally drove his SUV into the fire station at Syracuse Airport. No one was hurt but the building sustained major damage. http://www.9wsyr.com/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=94cb28c2-0a4b-427f-88dc-788f7c139037
