Only airline with $$$ to spend is SkyWest Inc. (SkyWest/ExpressJet) Doubt Republic has the $$$ to go buy the aircraft but who knows what sources of credit are out there.

I'm sure Republic could get the financing, but SkyWest has the balance sheet and pending aircraft orders to secure the lowest price per airframe in the regional sector.

republic goes to Embraer with a 10 year contract with AA, they will get financing.
 
Some of this may be a calculated move to pressure the American pilots to make a deal. American may just be using Republic and this press release as leverage. American has not imposed anything on their pilots yet and they know there are risks if they do. Seems like a pretty bold press release for a company in negotiations. This might be a ploy, we will know soon enough.

American didn't release this. It was Republic. Nobody from AA was interviewed in this article.
