TIM47SIP,
Thank you, you and a few others seem to be the only ones to get my point, that SkyWest and ASA would be hurt badly if Delta liquidates. That is all I was saying here. Nobody wants that to happen, and it is doubtful that it will.
CFIT,
Until the numbnuts statement, I almost thought you were a real person typing something of value. SkyWest will still take a large hit ($400 million worth) if they have to put ASA down, and all of the employees at ASA and half of the jets and employees on the DL SkyWest side would sit idle. Not a good scenario. And, who cares if Jerry or Ron are on seperate boards or run the different companies. SkyWest INC would suffer greatly, and it would be hard to find a new feeder contract, especially in ATL where Airtran is the second largest and they don't use RJs as feed, and the other LCCs would swarm in there too. Sure, you guys could try to connect some smaller cities with only RJs, but I don't know how many people in Fayattevile, NC want to go to ATL and connect onto Merridien, MS. Good luck with that.
Illinois,
There could be several scenarios that SkyWest management has thought up, but none of them would be good if DL---over half of their guaranteed revenue--went away. That was my point.
Bye Bye--General Lee
