When I was flying corporate turbo props he let me know that he’d never fly a turbo prop because it was the “lowest paid engine in the industry” as he droned along in another piston twin.



When I was flying for the majors/ global airlines his Fed Ex Feeder job in a Caravan made him the most interesting and hireable man in the world according to him.



Fast forward to a few months ago. He is a desperate 58 year old Sky West new hire. And Sky West is the is “best airline in the world” ALPA are a bunch of radicals who are “ holding him back from reaching his career potential” and he’s still got it all figured out, though despite multiple applications in the system he’s never had even one single airline interview from the bigs, much less a job offer. But he’s got it all figured out according to him. And he sounds a lot like our very own Skyw.
