DL will easily get rid of SKYW if they violate DALPA scope. That includes their sad fantasy of operating "non permitted types" as some kind of endless growth manifest destiny. They can do it if they want to on their own though, like IndyAir. SKYW is totally and completely dependent on guaranteed profit feed from a segment of the market that is shrinking rapidly.
