SkyWest Inc. to purchase RAH

[joe_pilot]

With a market Cap of $206 million dollars, Skywest Inc is positioned to aquire operational control of Republic Holdings by purchasing a mear %51 of common stock valued at($103 million) which equates to 15% of Skywest Inc's avialable unrestriced cash.

The speculation is fine, but you misspelled "mere" both on this thread and on the company forums this morning. Or is that mere coincidence

Skywest has no interest in acquiring airlines that have nasty liablities that will go along with the sale. These are not money making operations that have been available recently.

Having discipline with how you spend your money is always the smartest move.

Republic will discover this soon enough.

HAHAHHHAHAHAAHHAHAH! You're way off on your cash numbers. Skywest is in a very dangerous postion because of their ties to United. I have a lot of friends(senior check airmen) that bailed to Southwest and Delta for just that reason.

Well indeed it is an effortless task to get the tempers and opinions of every last FI member pumping like black smoke from my diesel pipe......

The numbers were a joke. But Foolish on their part. How is life on furlough for those Delta pilots. SWA is ARROGANT and skeptical after their cloaked inspections.

Skywest will not fail should United fail. Reasons:

1) An interested investor group would purchase UAL under Bankruptcy and restructure

2) The percentage of UAL flying done by Skywest could not be replaced by any regional

3) Congress would direct bailout funds to UAL

4) Skywest would be the only regional positioned with crew and aircraft to carry out a new market from the assets purchased by a new investor.

could happen! I know BB sent out a memo some time ago about his fear regarding a purchase by Skywest.

He mentioned they had twice the capital RAH did.

He predicted two bids for F9 after the initial RAH binding offer in June...Dallas and Salt Lake City. The one from Dallas materialized.

My thoughts exactly.

Does eveyone love seeing airlines fail cut the negative b.s.

Th

3) Congress would direct bailout funds to UAL

Wishful thinking on your part. Once that starts, all the carriers will get the funds... Then all car dealers, coffee shops, movie houses, etc....

Southwest may not be out of the picture, yet. They have alot more money than RAH.

Bingo. Why would OO want to purchase a company that just dug their own grave?

SkyWest is in no position to purchase any airline, they themselves just became the victim of a hostile takeover by Air Koryo.



LOL
