I guess i dont recall flying anything but Skywest for majority of the RJ flying out of DEN, and we certainly didn't have 145's or Q400's.

I fly to ABQ at least once a month, most all flights are Q400's and are very delay prone. Its a a suprise for me to have an on time departure and arrival. I don't fault the aircraft, as I think its actually a great plane. I have no clue why this is such a problem. I now have to fly into ABQ the day before my meetings to avoid problems. I could fly US via PHX and mainline service, something that is becoming difficult with UA out of DEN for majority of my destinations.

Edit: just realized that the 145's are operated by Express, and the Q400's are by Republic. Too many segments on RJ's for me to keep track of... Nevertheless, both are problematic from my experience.
