Wasn't Comair included in part of the value of Delta as far as getting USAir to back off the takeover? (or well however it went). It would be kinda a di*k move for Delta to value Comair so much one minute then turn around and take away more flying and let them fall apart on their own the next....

Though I spose that's just the way things go in this biz. And then again I might just not have a damn clue what I'm talking about haha. Good luck to the Comair pilots.

I think that statement goes on most successful airline management resumes...

I believe comair owns their own airplanes also. I may be wrong though. Like pinnacle fo said there are rumors around here about us getting some of those 900's. In december delta management was touring our facilities in mem. (i was there doing cat2 training when they told us all to take a 2 hour break and go somewhere else!! hahaha). any way when we came back is when we found out who was running around. I think comair deserves those planes since skywest has already taken some from them.

Guys do not be shocked if Comair explodes with growth. They can now make them look really good on paper. The game is coming to an end.

Hmmm....wonder where those could be going? Is it a coincidence that this gets announced right after a judge blocks Comair from striking and allows mgt to force sub-standard wages on the pilots?
it is a coincidence.

Lets hope Skywest gets them.

This is just an ashole comment. The guys/gals over at Comair have been in such a terrible postion the past couple of months, and so have the Pinnacle guys.

No one is going to give SkyWest pitty or encourage DL to give them these airplanes. You guys cannot handle your current growth.
