Very funny and all true, but I had a FA from an airline owned by said regional who said it (we have the money to buy Delta), I had a buddy riding jumpseat on said airline who had both of said airline pilots tell him they could buy Delta in cash and its been mentioned before on the forums. Its just amusing.
Are you by the way saying 50 seat RJ's are not an "unusual asset that would unlock the value of the bigger company..."
DAL's market cap for its 900 million plus outstanding share is about 9.3 billion dollars. Of course with a stock swap who needs money. No other airline has nine billion sitting around in their coffers, so it would have to be a stock swap.
Of course you could buy on margin
