While travel is in flux for all carriers, I wonder what the outcome will be for regionals especially. Maybe, if GoJet fails the CR2s could go and CR5s could be transferred to Air Wisconsin. I mean, ExpressJet folding before the former two really was unbelievable, to me.

Without knowing the ins and outs of Air Wisconsin I do believe their company is in a better place than GoJet, but they will need to eventually update their fleet to survive. I agree if GoJet goes under the CR5's and any remaining CR7's that Mesa didn't pick up would more than likely go to Air Wisconsin. I believe they even have an Elite Airways CR7 at ATW for "familiarization".

FlightAware seems to indicate a GoJet flight number...that's interesting. I think the other ferry flights had Mesa flight numbers.

Out of curiosity, I looked up that aircraft's route:
QLA (had to look that one up... Basingstoke, UK) - KEF - CLE - GYR

Big cargo route, UA usually flies a 764 but with all of them parked they needed something else.
