Buying Midwest would give them a 4th certificate to fly 190's etc on. They pretty much already do all Midwest's flying anyway.
This situation would suck.
Unfortunately, I think the Reverend set a precedent that many may try to copy. All we can do now is protect ourselves through our contracts, and hope that more "Lorenzo's" don't appear in the horizon.
Oh and by the way, if you're at a regional, and you're excited about getting 190's, you've got serious entitlement issues, and no ability to see forward into your future and your career.
