Doesn't matter what mainline wants, Inc is saying they cost too much and they have been losing money for forever. Xjt says its incs fault, I don't believe it they lost money before Skywest bought them and the contracts with the pilots in particular are not sustainable in the regional market as it stands today. Inc has for all intents and purposes given up on the "renegotiate with mainline" policy because mainline isn't playing ball.
