Yes they did. But Skywest has 20 700s as well. However let’s say they are to replace our 700s. It’s not gonna happen between Sept and December. I expect our 700s to eventually be 550s. Either with us flying them or with us selling the valuable 700 airframes to someone else. But in the short term they are needed to fly so I expect a short term extension until XJT gets their 170s flying.

JO is BSing your investors. Those 700s are getting replaced by 175s. Also SkyWest has 19 700s, which explaines the 19 options United has. The numbers add up. Most of those can’t go anywhere until ASE is figured out for 175s.

There's no question they are being replaced by 175s. The question is - can they be converted to 550's and still flown by Mesa and at what pace are they replaced? Those are the real questions.
