If 20 of the 51 were XRs and the rest er's, lr's, and 135s i would guess XJT would give those back unless another carrier wants xjt to fly them. Either way XJT has first rights to ALL aircraft.
Except that is exactly what CAL and SkyWest are planning to do and unless XJT wants to keep dozens of ERJs to add to their branded flying or for something else then they will slowly be bled to SkyWest. I don't like it either but trust me when I tell you; that's the plan as of today.
SkyWest just wants the CAL flying and the planes........ not the union pilots.
