Skywest v2.0
#7901
We (9E) are only getting 3 700s. Excluding the 8 that Expressjet is shifting to American flying, that leaves 22 left to go to Skywest for Delta. The 3 700s that we are getting are owned by Delta. The rest I believe are owned by Skywest.

Most likely, the Compass contract won't be renewed, and that flying will go to Skywest. Over the next 10 years, I see Delta winding down the regionals to just us(9E), and you guys. I could see Delta trying to buy Skywest to get the gates in ATL back too.

And RAH, unless they can find a way to get those LGA and DCA slots out of their hands.

Skywest v2.0
I'd imagine you guys would get the remaining 30 of Expresssjet's 700s. Skywest owns those birds. Or I guess 8 of those are going to the american operation. So remaining 22 going to Skywest I guess. I cant imagine ASA still being around with only supporting a little bit of American flying though.
Internal memos suggest the 22 700s are staying and operating for UAX. That would be a total of 42 700s.
