It is more like a theory. If it could be done Skywest could do well. That is all I am saying. I know the size of aircraft hasn't changed in years but I see it going up. Don't ask me how. I am just bitter and pessimistic about the way things have been going with the airlines.

Really? Give me an example. Each one of those failures were due to one thing, losing money. They couldn't make money. VA still can't. And they're flying a larger airplane with a lower CASM. So tell me how SkyWest will be different.
And the size of allowable RJs hasn't changed in years.

I know this isn't worth anything at all... I jumpseat on SKW all the time and I've heard numerous folks talk about a recent order for 7500 iPads. Thats what? Roughly the number of the combined ASA/XJT, and SKW pilot groups. I'll believe it when I see it though. Seems silly to arm the 50 seaters with iPads now. I'm sure there is alot of testing that needs to be done, plus wiring both sides of the cockpit with mounts and charging stations.
