I find it rather interesting that Mesa is including the 700's and 900's in the list of aircraft they want to drop. Personal opinion aside, I would assume that if they intended to exit BK they would want the 700's and 900's as they make money.
My jaw dropped when I saw the 900's listed. But I assume that OJ's just posturing, basically asking the judge for carte-blanche advance permission to do whatever the hell he pleases with the equipment, whenever he pleases.

If granted, that would give him a lot of "free-agency" leverage over the parties to the bankruptcy. I doubt the judge will grant it though, it would be too lopsided against the interests of he creditors (the only folks who really count in Ch.11).
