Nothing stopping Delta from dumping them in IGM, and allowing SkyPest to order more ERJ175's. Not true, I went back and read the bridge agreement. The aircraft must be "in service, in maintenance or operational spares" I'd say that precludes parking them in the desert. While the 28 airplanes coming from ASA ARE specifically identified, it says they can be substituted on a 1 for 1 basis with another 76 seat aircraft. I.e. it doesn't HAVE to be those airplanes but it DOES have to be 28.

An agreement that has a blanket, there will be X number of hulls at 9E would be worth something. What they've agreed to, isn't worth the paper its on.
Hopefully I got the bold formatting right from my phone. Otherwise the reply is between the /b's above.
