Superpilot92 said:Then they lose money because of what they own of XJET and the amount they have invested in a good product. Believe it or not we have a good relationship with CAL and why would they want to jack with something that is working. just my thoughts.
All because it works now does not mean it will work forever.
COEX makes up a large part of CAL operation. In coming months CAL could possibly be competing against alot of it's peers with a very unfair advantage. Delta in Bankruptcy........Northwest in Bankruptcy.......United in Bankruptcy..........US Airways in bankruptcy or out of it with a new streamlined (ra.ped from employees) cost structure.
Are 135's and 145's the best money making machines in the business right now? Maybe on some routes, but Hol.y he.ll does CAL do everything with those things.
Delta, USAir, and Northwest all have airlines that they own 100% of, but they don't even get 100% of the business....they've all diversified.
Anyway......I'm starting to sound like I'm trying to prove a point that I'm not really trying to prove.
COEX is an awesome regional, we all know it's not going anywhere, but is it going to be the airline that gets you from the very bottom of a very large list to somewhere that your comfortable with.....if your starting over you have to look at the present day operation and it's potential:
1.)I think the EMB-135/145, CRJ-200 has the potential to be the next plane everyone is trying to operate less of.
2.) I think CAL will most likey follow the way of everyone else and diversify their carriers...when they do so no new carrier will be buying more 50 seat aircraft.
