I'm sure you can agree that the XJET wasn't flying 700's out of IAH, CLE, or EWR ONLY because it was prohibited by the CAL scope clause. Well, now Skywest comes in and starts doing exactly that based on it being "United". I'm sure you can see the difference in this vs. USAirways Express flying a CRJ900 into IAH with a CAL codeshare on it.

I think you're missing the point. This is United Express flying, not CAL Express flying. CAL has been putting it's code on 70 seat United Express flying since before United and CAL merged. To those at CAL making threats, I suggest you get your facts straight.
