This limitation has been lifted by a renegotiation of the SKW UAX deal. Presumably they would not have negotiated to get rid of it if they didn't intend to fly for someone (probably DAL) out of LAX.
Haven't seen this anywhere reliable in writing. Just on the forums.

It's been on half a dozen press releases, should be easy enough to find at www.skywest.com

yeah maybe they should use that crappy archaic Brasilia

I was thinking more on the lines of a 700/900.

Oh, because its so much better than a 50 seater. NEWS FLASH!!! A 700/900 is still an RJ. You can put a bow on a terd, but its still a terd.

But pretty darn accurate!:D

I know you guys are in love with the 700/900s and probably feel like you got a couple brass ones swinging between your legs but that doesn't change the fact that THEY ARE STILL RJS!!!

We're talking about efficiency, don't show your ignorance. A bit higher cost but much more revenue. C'mon guys! This is common sense! Yes they're RJ's but they're more profitable and that’s ultimately the name of the game. I could care less whether it’s a 70 seat Cessna or a 70 seat RJ!

Just like the CR7/9 is replacing the CR2's; the E-series is replacing the ERJ’s. Just look at RAH. Airlines, regardless of regionals or mainline, have to adapt to the ever changing markets they serve. That's all this is.

We as pilots must fight to get paid what we're worth as the airlines change their fleet and continue to grow while feeding us BS lies in order to increase profitability.
