Last 2 characters of the N number. PQ are former Endeavor/Pinnacle aircraft Delta transferred to Skywest during the bankruptcy. CA are former Comair aircraft Delta owns. AS and EV were former ASA/ExpressJet aircraft Skywest took from them and flew them on their own non union certificate.

My opinion is the same Mormons that own a large share of Skywest own a large share of the Bank of Utah.

They can use the Bank to offer reasonable interest rates that traditional banks won’t offer durning periods of negative cash flow. The reasonable/competitive interest rates can include future CPAs for Skywest airlines.

Ive heard PSA aircraft have started popping up with Bank of Utah placards, and AA and Delta have also announced CPAs with Skywest for 175 flying.

There was an article a few weeks back about Mitsubishi re-opening a CRJ factory to produce 700s/550s in the near future.
I’m assuming that was total speculation by the writer as he didn’t post any reasonable sources for that info.

But who knows. Probably all smoke as OO has been buying up any and all 700s from overseas.

Why the hell would they want to make more 700’s available to future contracts to their competitors by encouraging the restart of a dead program.
