I wouldn't be surprised to see an announcement in April that actually Skywest is now getting these planes (in exchange for parking 200's). Just like with the AW deal and the Freedom planes.

Nobody said anything about PSA and Delta... they said that there may be another announcement this week that another operator is awarded CRJ900 flying. Then someone else pointed out, PSA is heading up to YUL tomorrow. And then remember the unnamed order last month.... it smells a lot like AA exercising some options.

While that sounds logical, why would skywest just get 12 endeavor 200's if that was going to happen?

Yeah obviously that was my first thought, but I'm wondering if there could me more to it? Like Skywest inc. has tied up all the recent delivery slots so I guess we have To go with the 900

The 36 Compass 175s have a T/O weight over 86,000 lbs and are grandfathered into the scope clause. I believe every other regional aircraft for every major has to be under the 86,000 lb limit.
