The OP seems to spam all the message boards here with links of things other people have said and no commentary, almost as if he is incapable of having a single unique thought.

There is room to include why you find it interesting. I don't find it all that interesting.

Believe it was because of our quarterly earnings report.

Stock buyback. Not really operationally related.

Perhaps, may be, because it's the best 'Regional' airline out there?
(I'm not, never was a SkyWest employee).

I'm probably wrong, but lets say they bought at a discount of $20. 125 Million Shares = $25,000,000.

The shares and the money disappear into thin air and still all of SkyWest inc can be boughten for half of the price of VA. Someday buybacks will be in the category of asbestos and lead.
