The MRJ 100 fits within current scope limits...

Maybe I am a little biased but I think this announcement looks like some good things on the horizon at Mesa. It looks like an exciting time to be getting into the industry!

This is 5 years down the road for a plane that doesn’t exist for airlines that are scoped out and can’t take the flying on. And not a firm order. Maybe they’ll replace our old 900s that’s the best I can think of.

Contingent with Mesa being able to assign this order with it's two mainline partners, AA and UA. In other words, will never happen.

SkyWest inc has a leasing company and can lease the MRJ to anyone in the world. It never has to touch “airlines”

Scope limits have nothing to do with it. Currely the 90 is running 8 years behind....

Guys, last I read it was just a MOU...I could sign an MOU with Airbus for 10,000 76 seat configured A380’s tomorrow, that doesn’t mean I’ll ever actually pay a dime or sign a legally binding contract for them. More so the announcement stated “If Mesa can secure a contract to fly them”

In other words, fake news...for the time being.
