Actually, no one knows exactly why it happened. NTSB hasn't found a probable cause yet.

I used this analogy before but it's like being blamed for crop dusting a room when it wasn't you. If you did it, fine. But it sucks when someone else does it and then suddenly everyone said you did it.

One might say the same thing for another carrier but, currently, there is not "United Express Airlines" or "Delta Connection Airlines." There is, however as of right now, a "American Eagle AIRLINES."

I seriously doubt any passenger has bought a ticket on AE because they perceived that they had a better reputation than another regional lift provider.

Crappy outsourced airline has incident.

Pilots get all worked up making sure everyone knows that it wasn't their crappy outsourced airline.
