Thought we have announced that the 757s were coming off of the Europe routes, something about not working as well as hoped.

Doubt it, they would then have to negotiate a higher hourly rate for the A330-200 that is being fitted with dual bunks and increased gross weight for missions over 12 hours.

It is the old "pump & dump" trade. Buy on the rumor, sell on the news.

When Comair makes a $40 million profit, which airline actually gets the money?

US regional airline group SkyWest Inc is planning to place a firm order for several hundred regional jets as it takes delivery of its last four aircraft on firm order this year.
SkyWest Inc CFO and treasurer, Michael Kraupp, says the airline group, which acquired ExpressJet Airlines last year, now has a fleet of 725 aircraft consisting of Bombardier and Embraer regional jets, many of which will be retired over the next years.
“As you can imagine we are going to have to start with a replacement strategy for each of our airlines,” Kraupp tells Airfinance Journal.

Or maybe they're looking at bigger than 76 "regional" jets. Maybe some branded flying? In that case, boy I'm glad we didn't do anything about AE/AMR flying in LAX, RAH flying with Frontier, TSA buying Mitsubishi jets, and now as we all think could eventually happen, Skywest will jump into that same holdings style flying. Maybe, maybe not.
chances of getting language in C2012 ending all of this outsourcing to fund competitors is as unlikely as saying end all outsourcing. We'll see how far this goes but if we fight this like we should I don't see any contract being signed within the next few years.

Now I don't have access to the whole article, but yeah you have a fleet of 725 mostly 50 seat regional jets but why replace them if we're (for instance) getting rid of 50 seaters?
