I just do not agree that they “look like us”

“We”, “Us”, are many and even Skywest is a melting pot. Some people hate that fact, I love it.

They may look like some of us but “some of us” are not representative for SkyWest or the US as a country

Expressjet pilots will have the fastest route to UA

Shares of SkyWest (NASDAQ:SKYW) perk up off reports that United Continental (UAL +1.1%) is interesting in the company's ExpressJet unit.

Behind doors “quick leak UA is buying XJT to stop pilots from leaving”. In all reality i bet it happens. Maybe not 100% purchase but something. Bigger question is why would SkyWest sell back XTJ only to compete with them again. That was the reason inc purchased them in the first place...

Anyone else notice that CommutAir is paying CA rates to ALL pilots after year one? Endeavors pay raise is impressive to say the least. Envoy guys are talking about $20 raise across the board over on their forum. Any historical precedent on how OO management reacts to these type situations?

Good, hope they get a flow. I think half of SkyWest would jump ship over to ExpressJet if that ever happened.

If the price is right.... after all, XJT has been losing money like crazy. An elegant way to get out of it for INC. I bet that UA will take a minority share with INC still owning the rest and some sweet earn out for INC if and when certain performance metrics are met.

It also remains to be seen what the deal will look like. The UA stake at C5 doesn't seem to work any wonders.

Inc. is the publicly traded entity so UAL cannot be a minority share holder in express jet without being a minority in all that is INC.

It would actually make sense for United being that commutair needs all the help it can get.
It would have made more sense a couple of months ago before Inc inked deals to fly for American.
