There is no precedent to compare XJT to on the regional side. On the legacy side, we compare more directly to Continental/Eastern. The cherry parts of Eastern were picked off by Lorenzo to be flown by CAL. The rest was left to rot (like the units GM shed off 8 years ago to the stockholders loss). XJT cannot prosper unless we merge with SKW. Otherwise, SKW will continue to strip off our flying and shrink us into oblivion. It's just a matter of it being a "convenient" time for SKW to pull the plug. I'd like to say we are in danger of being "Air Wiskie'd," but since SKW owns us, it won't play out quite the same. It'll be more like CHQ, but without 1-list.
