J.F. Joseph from Joseph Aviation Consulting remarked, “Navigating crosswinds can pose significant challenges for pilots.”

He elaborated, “Every crosswind is unique and unpredictable, which creates further complexities for the aviator.”

Residents of Minneapolis-St. Paul are generally familiar with Delta Airlines. However, for shorter journeys, travelers often choose Endeavor Air, which operates under the Delta brand while maintaining its own independent flying license.

According to the airline, Endeavor employs around 5,000 staff members, comprising 1,500 pilots and 1,600 flight attendants, and boasts a fleet of roughly 130 aircraft.

The regional airline asserts it has the largest fleet of CRJ-900 jets in the world, with these models representing all but nine of its aircraft. Endeavor operates 268 routes, serving destinations primarily in the eastern United States, along with a few international locations.

Nationwide, regional carriers such as Endeavor accounted for approximately 31% of all flights, as reported by the Regional Airline Association, a notable trade organization.
