So ASA(SKW) buys an airline...

[OCP]

And that airline grows, while the buyer shrinks? Not just keeping the airplanes that they have, but pulling more (37 seat?) out of the desert. And that makes money?
But ASA sucks so bad that we lost 14 AC this year. 6 200s(50 seat) and 8 700s.

The buyer isn't shrinking. They are adding flying for US Airways.

Aren't we all ASA (now Expressjet)? Why no expansion of the CRJ?
Me thinks that they are trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the XJT people by playing nice...

Oil is well over $100 a barrel now. 50 seaters and high oil don't really mix, thus little expansion.


Godspeed!

They did lose some CR7s to Gojets.


Godspeed!

Gojets won't last long with the oil prices either.... Sad but true.

Unfortunately they will last a little longer because they pay their people less money.


Godspeed!
