Buy out G7?? Maybe find a few overseas or something but that’s about it . Not to mention UA is probably unwilling to pay for the conversions if they do find any . G7 will have 75 550s once all is said and done anyway .

Commutair is about to face the same fate as XJT. If they do survive it will be 20-25 planes max. The rest of the 50 seat lift will be Skywest and GoJet.

Like I said. Skywest will be fine.

UAL isn’t giving ZW money for bonuses. It’s part of their CBA.

You are correct Skywest will be fine.

Actually a lot are owned by G7 more you think. G7 also owns a few CRJ900s that Endeavor are flying.

How many 550s does GoJet own? How many are owned by SkyWest? Mesa?

Which CRJ-900s are owned by GoJet? Just cause they have GJ in the tail doesn’t mean Hulas owns them. Delta is too cheap to change tail #s

GJ tail ≠ owned by GJ.

So that means 686BR isn’t still owned by Atlantic Coast?

Wait you’re telling me Mesa doesn’t still own the Freedom 5 either?

Is it true C5 management sent an email stating that they’re getting a new aircraft type?

If so, are they just adding a new type like ZW without actually having any new aircraft or anyone to fly them for? United is scoped out
