Is SkyWest working on a new RFP with Delta? Or are they just haggling over current contract?

Let's flush the regional system and start from scratch.

PS does United still have one out? Comair was looking into it I think last year; evidently they weren't awarded any new flying but wondering whatever happened with that.

Comair has been saying that they are about to get the big United contract for at least the last 5 years. Probably longer. I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.

Why the hell would a wholly owned DELTA regional do flying for UAL?

They won't... Especially Comair. Delta has such ill will towards them now that they'd take a loss to give that flying to Mesaba or Compass long before taking a profit with Comair. (maybe not a realistic costing... but the sentiment is the same)

What everyone means to say, is that RPF means Comair is going to loose more flying
