- Is DAL paying leases for the LAX ERJ's?

Of course if CAL goes into Ch.11 all bets are off.

Personally, as a long-term investor, I stay out of airline stocks...too many things that can go wrong with no warning.
The way I understand it is that all the branded XR's are being returned to CAL along with XJT returning their 135's to their leasers.

I completely agree with staying out of airline stocks but with XJT’s new CPA and their stock sitting so low I couldn’t resist. BTW, whenever I’m awarded SKW stock I dump them the minute I can into my Roth.
