what would you wager as a condition of the loan, Daddy Delta wants to downsize 50 seat feed.

its the Beer can of the future. AA is on a path to be an all jet airline. Delta is trying to do the same. Even USAIR is on this road. No one wants to ride on a turbo prop, esp after the crash in 2008.

Tell that to all the loyal Horizon customers (which there are a ton of). Or all of the oil rough necks flying in and out of Williston on Great Lakes. Passengers don't care. Its about the customer service provided and managing the airline properly.
