one of the tails was 656ca. Not sure of the others but it’s on it’s way back from Tucson currently. Not sure about the other 3 but they’re on the OO op specs.

Nope, SkyWest took over some of the DCI-Ops GoJet 700s. Some will fly as 550s leased by OO, others to directly flown by SkyWest. It was not 1-1 as far as 700s going from GoJet to Endeavor. Likely offset in DCI scope by 175SCs.

OO has increasingly been getting into leasing tails to other carriers. Many of the DCI 900s have been leased to Air Canada, and replaced within DCI by new 175s.

OO has plenty of 700’s sitting around from it’s previous operations or ASA aircraft that they took over the leases ect... I would say OO has 11 sitting “idle” right now. Lots of ROW paint repos going on lately.....

Actually, now that you mention it, you're right. I think some of those 700s were swapped for Atmosphere deliveries, IIRC.

Then again, I didn't totally IIRC the first time.

You always seem to be on top of 9E fleet stats...
Are there any plans/rumors of 9E picking up any other airframes?
Or is it CRJ FO EVA?

There's always a 170 rumor at 9E.

The latest rumor is our new boss probably will have the task of getting 170s online at 9E. That's an APC rumor.

There's also the rumor that YX has liquidity issues. That's an MSP rumor.

It won't be the 200 fo' evah, that's for sure.

Delta, along with others, are going to have to face the music soon in the near future about the 50 seat gap. Either they will have to stretch out the life longer than they want, or bite the bullet and start putting turboprops back into the mix. Nobody can afford to let that capacity gap vanish.

the solution is called “at risk/prorate”. They get the pax but don’t need to deal with the costs and hassle of the small city fluctuations... The CRJ 200 will live another 10 years doing that..

There are small markets that are gold mines that use 50 seat aircraft. No way they are going to cough up those markets to at risk or pro rate.
