This is true. Also heard the RFP has been signed for the Mesa flying. Its not if but when they can take it from Mesa and give it to Skywest. The only hang up is that United gave Mesa 22 million to overhaul engines that they never overhauled. So if Skywest takes those planes they wont fly them unless the overhauls actually get done. The question is who pays for the overhauls. Skywest doesnt feel they should have to since United paid Mesa to do it but they pocketed the money, United doesnt feel they should have to because they paid Mesa to do it. That leaves Mesa who should have done it but spent the money and now has no cash to do it. The sad thing is Mesa is still flying these planes around. Skywest has said they would not fly them without the overhauls. Safety first.
