C Series for Skywest

[airtime42]

Skywest is in talks with Bambardier hoping to be the launch customer for the C Series. Rumor has it that it isn't for any codeshare. Skywest branded flying i guess. Wonder if they are counting on oil prices dropping. The jet is trouted as being 20% more efficient. They might be able to make a go of it in 2013.

No, actually I think we will be making a deal with Cape Air and using those efficient suckers to fly for them.

Airtime is a huge fan of SkyWest.

The post can't be true because there isn't anything negative in the post.

The C series shouldn't be flying for any regional airline.

I call BS on this one.

Jerry Atkin & Co. is smarter than trying to start up branded flying after two high profile failures of such. SkyWest management has stated many times in their investor conference calls that they have no interest in branded flying and intend to grow the business by providing quality and efficient feed to mainline carriers.

If SkyWest ends up on the delivery list for this airplane, it's because they already struck a 15 year deal to fly it for a mainline partner. THAT'S how SkyWest does business.
