The aircraft would be based at Kansas City International Airport beginning October 1, 2008. On September 3, 2008, Republic signed a new 10-year codeshare agreement with Midwest Airlines.

As part of US Airways' bankruptcy restructuring, the 25 Embraer E170s delivered to MidAtlantic were bought by Republic to help US Airways come out of bankruptcy Republic operates them along with additional newly delivered aircraft. This agreement created a subsidiary, MidAtlantic Airways. The airline negotiated around this clause by offering flight deck jobs to laid-off US Airways pilots, in a program known as "Jets for Jobs". US Airways' pilots had a scope clause prohibiting the airline from operating large regional jets such as the Embraer E170. Republic Airways Holdings paid $6.6 million to the pilot union of American Airlines to settle the issue. American was then no longer in violation of its pilot union scope clause.

The conference aimed to investigate as many aspects as possible of Erasmus’s literary, educational, rhetorical, and theological activities and of their influence on the emerging Europe of the early modern era. Erasmus scholarship has been a growing field since the late twentieth century, owing to the enormous volume and vast intellectual range of his oeuvre and to the reprinting of his works from the 1960s onwards, while Allen’s edition has proved the basis for research for scholars of almost every aspect of Renaissance humanism and the Reformation. This volume contains a selection from among the papers delivered at a conference held to mark the centenary of a watershed event in early modern studies: the appearance of Volume I of P. ![]()
