3) SLC Brasilia flying shrinking and unprofitable.

4) Working on a flow with United but apparently it wouldn't be for just us, would be for all United Express carriers. How does that benefit recruiting at OO? Evidently that's the sticking point.

Discuss.
I just have to ask. If you were in a OO class, what on earth could make you want to jump to an airline that invites people to class without so much as a phone interview?? And at least to this noob, Skywest and Horizon seem like the two best regionals out there. I can't remotely imagine ditching a OO class to go to Mesa.
