SkyWest paints optimistic picture for regionals
Not only is there plenty of opportunity for regionals, said SkyWest CFO Brad Rich, but there are still opportunities for 50-seat lift; a good thing considering the high concentration of those aircraft in its 451-aircraft fleet. But the company is also looking at larger aircraft including Bombardier’s C-Series. “We are actively involved in analyzing different aircraft types and how we could use them,” he told analysts at the Raymond James Growth Airline conference this week in New York.
