Skywest will have to pay more when all the ALPA pilots stop applying and filling out classes. I was one of them. I agree with Rickair, fix the problems in the regionals with Mesa, Pinnacle, and ALPA majors contracting with GoJets then come and talk. As the payscale above shows, Skywest is still one of the top regionals out there. People are willing to make a lateral move from every regional out there to come over here, that says something. We all need more pay and Skywest is definatly one of them.


In response to Pinnacle flying in SLC, that's a great idea having 250 hour FO's and 1800 hour CA flying in mountainous terrain... brilliant!!! They can't staff their airline as it is with qualified applicants.
