From what I'm reading DeltaConnect can operate 15 76 seater's next year and another 15 in '08. So what does the DL TA say about 70 seater's? Is there and limit? And how many does DConnect operate now?
 
Up to 200 seventy seaters, including any 76 seat aircraft allowed (like you said 15 in 07, another 15 in 08).

I believe there are around 85 seventy seaters in DCI right now.

You will probably see a lot of the current 50 seaters retired in the process, since they do not produce enough revenue for mama DL. I bet CHQ will buy Comair, and 69 of their CRJ200s will go to the COEX flying.(CAL can only fly 50 seaters) Just a guess.

GL,

Shows you how much you know! CHQ will be taking 69 EMB from COEx and not flying CRJ's for them. It was in the offer. I wonder what else you "know"

And any amount of money you want to put on it, I'll take that bet on CHQ NOT buying comair.
 
Delta could do kinda the same thing that NWA is doing, only they don;t have to buy a new certificate and start compass when they have Comair and possibly some drastically reduced costs.

Comair lowers costs

Comair gets some 70 or 76 seaters (i know i know, they are going to ASA! )

Comair sold like MidAtlantic.

Adding to this good post..... the previous limit was 125, so ther new agreement is for 75 aircraft.

I don't know the numbers, but somebody should figure it out and post them.
