Airways does not own the 900's..If Mesa were to fail that would be very bad for Airways since no one else could fly them if they were tied up in another bankruptcy.PSA tried negotiating 900 rates because of management tactics for a new contract.Didn't work, plus against the rules of ALPA in negotiating rates for planes that are not on order.
The 700's being pulled down are contractual with United, the pull down starts with 5 planes in Nov.
There is talk the 700's would Go! to Hawaii.
