One more time for people that don't get it. As some that has worked for Xjet on the continental side. SkyWest didn't do their research when they bought Xjet they didn't know how bad their pilot group really is. As a result they have lost money on that operation year after year. And are trying to dump that disaster area of a company. Their pilot group is known for being very militant, actually known and seen several captains intentionally breaking a perfectly good airplane to prove a point to the company. Trust me they will never be merged with anyone, they will also not be in business next year either
P.S. they are scheduled to get rid of 80% of their fleet this year. Mostly to commute Air who is hiring street captains to fly those Xjet airplanes.
