I don't think it's a question of right and wrong. Look at those carriers that are unionized; there's no solidarity. Mesa bids different rates on -200 flying than Air Whiskey. Even at the unionized carriers, you have 737 Captains at SWA making more than wide body Captains at UAL. Point being: there's no set standard. And without that, who's to say what is right and wrong? I know some people will say "But if Jerry could pay you $10 less an hour, he would!" But c'mon...what CEO wouldn't that apply to? Having not worked at Skywest, from the outside looking in, it looks like Jerry has 'cracked the code' on what we all knew before: compensate your employees as best you can and they'll take care of the company. But he's probably just taking a page out of Kelleher's book.
