Get it in you head...INC WILL NEVER GROW XJT. The purpose when Inc bought ASA and XJT was to gain market share. They might of gave the two groups a chance to get together 7 years but when that never happened the desision was made to slowly dismantle the two airlines and replace their flying with SkyWest. How many combined ASA/XJT pilots were there in 2011 vs now? It’s insanity that people think the “big” announcement is coming.

I agree that Skypest will NEVER grow XJT. I disagree that they will not sell Expressjet.

Who do you work for? Sorry but United controls the 145's and will decide who gets to fly them. Skywest will not fly the 145's. They may replace them with 200's however.

To be honest, sometimes I wonder who you work for.

I also never said what United and INC are going to do. I said what would be an indication of bad news for XJT and that would be SKW adding a 145 to their certificate. It would indicate a continuation of the pattern that started with ASA.
Personally, I still believe that XJT will be awarded Ejets and be sold to an investor group led by United - in a similar model as CommutAir.
