yes and no. In my opinion that is. So long as they can be scope claused from flying anything with 100 or more seats in it they aren't a major. Revenue amount or not. Until they are allowed the freadom of choice between aircraft they aren't a major. And yes if they could I'm sure XJT or SKW would fly a 737 on a couple routes because they are much more efficient. They are stuck on regional jets so they are a regional.

lets just hope xjt doesnt turn into another ACA -good luck
Do you seriously think Delta and United would still be around if it wasnt for SkyWest and Mesa? What crutch besides the federal govt do you think they've been leaning on??
