So now it's been pointed out that you are the bottom of all those boarding lists and your comeback is to point out that you get to fly on your own metal??? ***?

Here's a newsflash Mr. Non-Wholly Owned: Envoy pilots have equal boarding priority not only on AA but our own metal as well. Shocker, right? And Envoy's network is pretty extensive all by itself. Then add AA's network on top of that which these days includes everything from US Airways. And unlike Skywest, Envoy/PSA/PDT pilots have equal priority on AA. We are not the last guys on a very long list hoping for one empty seat and no standbys.

Yet you still want to try and argue about this? You guys are desperately grasping at straws. I've heard weird things about Skywest pilots before and never really believed it...now I'm starting to think otherwise.
