I fly for SkyWest; we most certainly do not fly 250 KIAS everywhere we go. That said, yes, we are not paid by block which sucks. My personal view is not that we are rude, we are just pilots focusing on moving ahead with our careers. If I were starting out at the regionals today, I would definitely consider Endeavor over SkyWest if one lived within good commutable distance of the bases. There's just more money to be made and the Delta interview is well worth giving Endeavor a try in my humble opinion.
