The XRs are all owned by United, aren't they?

Well of course not because TWA doesn't exist anymore. But it is within the realm of possibility for xjt (or anyone else) to fly ERJs for Delta.

Delta had already made the decision to get rid of ASA and their poor performance in LAX. Xjt won the cpa for 10 aircraft and two years (and later another dozen pro-rate aircraft). We were just a place holder. Once delta got itself in order, they bought xjt out of the cpa a year after it started.

And as mentioned, the ASA operation was underperforming.
