..but then again, Jeff, if we get those RJ's for free (like our Airbi), why not? Ha!

How about LUV.

What if LUV bought Skywest SLC operation ?

Delta would be a bit upset.
Something to think about.

ERJ-195, B717, B737-600, Airbus 318?

This is just a theoretical question kind of related to this thread. IF and I emphasise IF SkyWest were to branch out on it's own independant operation in the 130 seat and less aircraft catagorie size which airplane would be the best choice of those listed above and why? I was perusing some facts and figures and was surprized to see that the Airbus 318 will take off (standard conditions) in 2000 feet less runway than a CRJ-200. Thats pretty amazing. Both Boeing and Airbus make claims and counter claims that each of their aircraft operate at lower costs than their other manufacturers conterpart.
