Whether Cares 2.0 passes or not, the implication is that between Wisconsin, Commutair, and Expressjet, only one operator will still be flying at all. The other two will shut down and everyone will be on the street, cares 2.0 or no.

Air Wisconsin doesn't fly E145s so how are they impacted?

They won't be impacted...with this decision, anyway.

This will be a fight to the death between C5 and EV and we should know the winner shortly.

Only thing EV has going for them is size and capacity.

Honestly, I think that size and primarily quality is EV's biggest downfall. Quality is very expensive and that's the pilot group EV has.

I think size is an advantage for EV. Allows united some flexibility when demand returns.

Remember on 10/1 XJT can fly 100% of the 145 feed. C5 cannot. It will take expense to transfer airplanes, hire and train pilots and other staff. Additionally there will be expenses upgrading systems and process to nearly double the C5 operation. While this is being done UA is going to have to pay EV to continue operations. Additionally, their will be added expense to UA in growing pains.

I say XJT concessions will be required and it seems likely.

Time will tell.
