“Sell us Xjet or we will cancel all our CPA’s with SKW/Xjet and transfer them to others.” is one possibility of forcing a sell. An empty 121 Certificate (Xjet’s Certificate) is worth a lot less without a pilot base.

When Xjet started winding down its operations for American, I figured the Xjet deal was already done with United and there are a series of steps that SGU must go through. If the CRJ200’s and 175’s happen, there is a definition change of attitude in SGU and something had to make that happen.
