Why should this airline be added?
Not to be confused of the regional American airline of the same name, Skywest Airlines was a regional airline that was based off of Perth, which was the result of the mergers between Jet Charter Air Services and Stillwell Airlines. In the early 1980s, the airline became a subsidiary of Ansett up until 2002. It became an independent regional airline well onto the early 2010s, where Virgin Australia invested in the airline, until it was eventually integrated to Virgin Australia as Virgin Australia Regional Airlines. Such an airline would be interesting to see in-game.
