Here's what I don't understand. Why do pilots care so much about how their airline is performing. Generally speaking, almost all pilots will get the airplane out on time if they can at all help it. Why is it an indication of how good the pilots are if their company schedules 30 minute plane swaps, delayed for maintenance or other?
It really is silly to sit here and judge a pilot group based solely on on-time performance, especially considering if those pilots were put in the others' shoes, they would undoubtedly have the exact same performance.

This is a very likely scenario. The new TA just voted in by our pilot group allows any "excess" aircraft to be leased out. When Delta drops the hammer on BBs head and cancels the contract, we're gonna have a plethora of "excess" aircraft.

It would do better getting in but it can't make the climb out SE departure or missed.
Republic tried. Perhaps SkyWest knows some people that know some people and can work some magic. I doubt it. However, the pax would love it.

The 175 can not be certified into ASE under 121.
