Skywest to fly for US Airways

[Jon Rivoli]

Usair WILL buy Mesa, mark my words. It is the only way to combine east west by bringing another airline.......

They had the chance in bankruptcy. East and west will be fully integrated when the last Easty retires.

Writing is on the wall for SKYW. operating old 200s at a loss eventually will catch up with you.

What are you saying? They are not exactly like the Wagon Queen Family Truckster?

Sniper,

While I don't doubt what you say, how would this unite too warring pilot groups?

Did you even read the release... They can option the 200's for 700's.....

unless one of the contract carriers in the US Air system (Rep, Mesa, PSA operate the 70 seaters CRJ700/900 and ERJ170/175) sheds some 70 seaters they cannot add any more 70 seaters WRT our scope.

The limit is 110 (ish) and they are at that now.

Fr8tmastr could probably give some better details.

Impending order of 20 Q-400s to be announced at a later date

Wonder where they are coming from?

Maybe from ASA?

CC: We're starting out using 200s because we can't get a hold of any new or used 700s right now.

 

[WSurf]

Q400's are scoped out of US Airways also..... We'll if you try and operate them at 70 seats.

 

[Thebadcat1313]

Maybe from ASA?

Can't because of our TPA in the XJT acquisition. Having a Contract is a good thing.

And Air Wisky is any better?

there's one in BTR ASA ain't using :laugh:

 

[WAVIT Inbound]

These air frames are coming from the current fleet but it is growth. These are coming off routes being replaced by 700's. AGAIN I REPEAT THIS IS GROWTH! If this deal would not have been done they would have went to the desert. They were replaced by 700's!

Is that the one the mechanic started with the thrust levers in the to/ga detent?
