Geez guys.... In skywests press release it clearly states these are fleet replacement airframes, not growth. They can be configured to meet the 76 seat scope limit. This could be more of a tactic to put pressure on bombardier, who knows. It's also an agreement in principle, not a firm order. Skywest/ expressjet also flys for unical and will surely be bidding on eagle flying in the near future. The airline buisness does not revolve and Delta.
