Shortly after entering Ch.11, DL reconfirmed the existing SKW and ASA flying (everything that belongs to SKW, Inc).
The RFP under discussion was a post-bankruptcy re-bidding of ALL non-SKW Inc DL regional flying. Basically all of the current regional providers (except SKW) have been fired and are reapplying for their own flying (and maybe somebody elses flying too). I think there is some actual NEW 700 flying in there too.
SKW was awarded a handful of COMAIR airplanes, but the rest of it is still unnannounced. Word on the street is that the awards have been made, and the various regionals are being allowed to make the announcements at their discretion.
