In addition, that same article might add more fuel to the "United merger" rumor, and put secondary emphasis on the "NWA merger" rumor since they explicitly state DAL is considering a buyout of UAL.
If DAL bought UAL, they could boot Mesa and GoJet outta ORD and give that flying to Comair...not sure if that would happen, but it would be nice to see Comair have something good happen to them.
"NEW YORK, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Delta Air Lines (DAL.N: Quote, Profile, Research) has put on hold plans to sell its Comair regional jet service division while it explores a possible merger with United Airlines (UAUA.O: Quote, Profile, Research) or another rival, the Financial Times reported on Sunday."

I personally think Skywest, ASA, and Comair should form sports teams and play olympic-scale tournaments to determine who gets what flying from DAL. Most of the players selected would probably be trprop guys from Skywest and ASA, due to the higher usage of arm muscles required to actually handfly. Meanwhile, CRJ drivers with their superior button-pushing, knob-turning, and FMS programming skills would excel at running complicated plays and setting up 2 point conversions...and they could also set up a very complicated communications system to link up the coach, the FA cheerleading squad, the maintenance crews, and the QB. We could autotune the coach's headset to the helmet of whatever player had the ball.

Thats awesome, lol. I like both the Titan and Tundra, at least 100% of them are made here in the USA. Can't say that about the F150, more and more are made in mexico every year...
